Procedure

To a solution of 8.75 g of 3,3-dimethyl-4-hydroxyimino-1-[1-(R)-phenylethyl]-pyrrolidin-2-one in 300 ml of methanol there was added 20 ml of Raney-nickel, and reduction was carried out under a hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature for 16 hr (H2 pressure: 1 atm). The catalyst was removed by filtration and the solvent of the filtrate was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was purified through column chromatography using a column filled with 300 g of silica gel. From a fraction eluted with a mixture of methanol and chloroform(1:30, v/v), 3.75 g of the less polar isomer of the titled compound was obtained along with 10.2 g of a mixture of the less polar and more polar titled compound.
