Ethyl 1-ethyl-5-oxoprolinate (1.33 g, 7.18 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (10 ml) and cooled to 0° C. in an ice bath. To this was added 12.5M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1.72 ml, 21.53 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for ˜4 hours at 0° C. The ethanol was evaporated under vacuum and the aqueous residue was acidified with 2N aqueous hydrogen chloride to pH1. The volume of the aqueous phase was reduced to ˜3 ml under vacuum and then extracted with a 3:1 mixture of chloroform and isopropanol using a phase separator. The combined organic layers were concentrated to a pale yellow oil which on drying in vacuo crystallized to give 1-ethyl-5-oxoproline as a white solid (1.12 g).
