Reaction Steps

101.5 To a stirred solution of 200 mg (3RS,4RS)-4-cyclopropyl-pyrrolidine-1,3-dicarboxylic acid 1-tert-butyl ester at 80° C. in 2 ml dioxane under an argon atmosphere were added 0.20 ml diphenylphosphoryl azide and 0.16 ml N-ethyldiisopropylamine. Stirring at 80° C. was continued for 4 hrs. Then, the hot mixture was poured onto 15 ml 1 N KOH and the product was extracted with EtOAc. The aqueous phase was back extracted with EtOAc. The combined organics were washed with H2O and brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (silica gel; gradient: CH2Cl2->CH2Cl2/MeOH 9:1) to give 34 mg (3RS,4SR)-3-amino-4-cyclopropyl-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester as light brown gum. MS 227.3 ([M+H]+)
