Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (10.0 g) in dry methylene chloride (40 mL) was added at 0° C. a solution of (S)-3-Hydroxy-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (2.8 g) in dry methylene chloride (15 mL). DMAP (1.1 g) and triethylamine (6.1 g) was added. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was then allowed to reach room temperature and stirred for 12 h. The mixture was acidified with 1 N HCl. The organic layer was washed two times with 1 N HCl, one time with saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and one time with brine. The organic layers were dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated. The product with the molecular weight of 341.43 (C16H23NO5S) was obtained in this way; MS (ESI): 342 (M+H+).
