Procedure

A mixture of 3-[2-(4-bromo-phenyl)-2-oxo-ethylcarbarnoyl]-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.5 g, 3.6 mmol) and ammonium acetate (1.4 g, 18.2 mmol) in xylene (15 mL) was heated in a sealed tube at 140° C. for 2 hours. The volatile component was removed in vacuo, and the residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate (150 mL), washed with NaHCO3 solution, water and brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The obtained residue was purified by flash chromatography to provide the desired product as a white solid (795 mg, 56%). m/z 391.8, 393.8 (M+H)+.
