Hydrochloric Acid → Ethyl 3-(5-oxopyrrolidin-2-yl)propanoate

참여 물질

반응 단계

Twenty-eight grams of dihydro-1H-pyrrolizine-3,5(2H,6H)-dione (III) are dissolved in 100 g of ethyl alcohol and 0.2 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid is added. The solution is heated at reflux for 104 hours. The mixture is cooled and excess ethyl alcohol is distilled at reduced pressure. The oil is dissolved in 1 l of anhydrous diethylether, 1 g of activated charcoal is added and the resulting suspension is filtered through filter aid. The filtrate is concentrated at reduced pressure and the resulting crystals are isolated by filtration. Recrystallization from carbon tetrachloride-petroleum ether yields 5-oxo-2-pyrrolidinepropanoic acid ethyl ester with a melting point of 60°-61° C.
