The white solid residue obtained on removal of solvent was dissolved in EtOAc (25 mL) and washed with water and saturated aqueous NaCl (1×25 mL each). The organic layer was then dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to yield (S)-3-((S)-2-azido-1-hydroxyethyl)pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid t-butyl ester (1.3 g).
