Procedure

A solution of tert-butyl 3-oxopyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (40 g, 216 mmol) was treated with DMF-DMA (267 g, 2241 mmol) and heated at 105° C. for 40 min. The solution was cooled and evaporated under reduced pressure and the resulting orange solid was treated with hexane (200 mL) and cooled in a refrigerator for 3 days. The resulting brownish-yellow solid obtained as such was collected by filtration, dried and used in the next step without further purification.
