Reaction Steps

(TFA/triethylsilane for not labile methoxy-benzylsulfanyl, Method 2): 100 mg (0.23 mmol) of (2S,4R)-2-benzylsulfanylmethyl-1-methanesulfonyl-4-(4-methoxy-benzylsulfanyl)-pyrrolidine was dissolved in 8.2 ml TFA and treated at 0° C. with 0.35 ml (2.38 mmol) triethylsilane. The reaction was warmed up over night, heated 2.5 min at 80° C. and evaporated. Flash silica gel column (CH2Cl2/EtOAc 99:1) gave 15 mg (21%) of (3R,5S)-5-benzylsulfanylmethyl-1-methanesulfonyl-pyrrolidine-3-thiol, mp 101.5-103.5° C., MS: 318 (MH+).
