The reaction went to completion monitored by LC-MS and was quenched by addition of saturated aqueous NaHCO3 solution (˜25 ml). Two layers were separated, aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (˜20 ml). Organic layers were combined, dried (Na2SO4), filtered, solvent was removed in vacuo. Crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography (Hexane/EtOAc, gradient from 100:0 to 70:30). Compound (R)-tert-butyl 2-((N-methoxy-N-methylcarbamoyl)methyl)-4,4-difluoropyrrolidine-1-carboxylate was obtained as a light yellow oil: 1.20 g; additional product was obtained from recovered carboxylic acid: 0.2 g (53% combined overall yield over 2 steps).
