反応手順

To a mixture of (R)-ethyl 5-oxopyrrolidin-2-carboxylate (Aldrich, 3 g, 19 mmol) and sodium borohydride (1.89 g, 50 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) at 50° C. was added dropwise for 30 min methanol (10 mL). The reaction was then continued for an additional 15 min and cooled to room temperature. The mixture was treated with 1N HCl to pH=3 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with anhydrous methanol and the solid was filtered off and washed with methanol. The filtrate and washings were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure. The concentrate was then triturated with anhydrous tetrahydrofuran and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and the concentrate was dissolved in anhydrous CH2Cl2 (20 mL). p-Toluenesulfonyl chloride (3.64 g, 19 mmol) was added, the mixture was cooled to 0° C. and triethylamine (2.66 mL, 19 mmol) was added dropwise. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for 12 h. The mixture was then washed with water, brine, dried with anhydrous MgSO4 and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was chromatographed (SiO2, ethyl acetate-ethanol 9:1) to afford 3.5 g of the title compound. 1H NMR (300 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 1.62 (m 1H), 2.06 (m, 3H), 2.42 (s, 3H), 3.71 (m, 1H), 3.87 (dd, J=10 Hz, 4 Hz, 1H), 3.97 (dd, J=10 Hz, 4 Hz, 1H), 7.49 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H), 7.75 (broad s, 1H), 7.82 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H); MS (DCI/NH3) m/z 270 (M+H)+, 287 (M+NH4)+.
