2-Benzylhexahydrocyclopenta[c]pyrrol-4(5H)-one (16.28 g, 76 mmol), titanium tetraethoxide (28.5 mL, 137 mmol), and (S)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide (10.452 g, 86 mmol) were combined in tetrahydrofuran (200 mL). The reaction was heated at 60° C. overnight. The reaction was then reduced in volume to about half and poured into 150 mL of saturated aqueous ammonium chloride. The precipitate was collected by filtration and washed with ethyl acetate. The filtrate was poured into a separatory funnel and the organic layer was removed. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl acetate (3×100 mL). The organic washes were combined and washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated. The crude material was chromatographed using silica gel cartridge (Analogix®, Burlington, Wis., RS65-400) eluting with 5-100% ethyl acetate/hexanes to give (S,E)-N-((3aR,6aS)-2-benzylhexahydrocyclopenta[c]pyrrol-4(5H)-ylidene)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide and (S,E)-N-((3aS,6aR)-2-benzylhexahydrocyclopenta[c]pyrrol-4(5H)-ylidene)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide.
