Reaction Steps

150 mg. of 1-(p-hydroxybenzoyl)-2-pyrrolidinone are dissolved in 7 ml. of absolute tetrahydrofuran and then etheric diazomethane solution is added. The solvents are distilled off, the residue is triturated with diethyl ether and the mixture is filtered. There is obtained 1-(p-methoxybenzoyl)-2-pyrrolidinone which melts at 117.5°-119° C. after sublimation.
