반응 단계

In accordance with the present invention an improved process for preparing dihydro-1H-pyrrolizine-3,5-(2H,6H)-dione comprises the steps of first catalytically hydrogenating a mono(lower alkyl) ester of 4-(hydroxyimino)heptanedioic acid in the presence of a tertiary lower alkyl amine to produce 5-oxo-2-pyrrolidinepropanoic acid, and thereafter heating the 5-oxo-2-pyrrolidinepropanoic acid in the presence of a cyclizing agent to form dihydro-1H-pyrrolizine-3,5-(2H,6H)-dione.
