A mixture of pyrrolidin-2-one (500 mg, 5.9 mmol), 4-bromo benzoic acid methyl ester (1.5 g, 6.97 mmol), Pd2(dba)3 (135 mg, 0.14 mmol), xantphos (256 mg, 0.44 mmol) and cesium carbonate (2.7 g, 8.28 mmol) in dioxane (2 mL) in a sealed tube was subjected to reaction in a microwave reactor (time: 20 min, temp: 105° C., power: zero). The reaction mixture was filtered through celite and the filtrate collected was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was diluted with cold water, extracted with ethyl acetate, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the residue. The residue obtained was purified by column chromatography (using 60-120 silica gel and 50% ethyl acetate in hexane as eluent) to afford 485 mg (37.89% Yield) of 4-(2-oxo-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-benzoic acid methyl ester. NaOH (295 mg, 7.4 mmol) was added to a stirred mixture of 4-(2-oxo-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-benzoic acid methyl ester (485 mg, 2.2 mmol) in a mixture of MeOH (5 mL) and H2O (5 mL), stirring was continued at 60° C. for 1 hr. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to get the residue, which was acidified with 10% aqueous HCl solution, the precipitate was collected to afford 300 mg (66% Yield) of 4-(2-oxo-pyrrolidin-1-yl)-benzoic acid.
