Cyclobutanone → HCID 67322891, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of (S)-pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid (1.0 g, 8.69 mmol), cyclobutanone (671 mg, 9.56 mmol) and 10% Pd/C (44 mg) in MeOH (10 mL) was stirred under an atmosphere of hydrogen for 20 hours. The reaction mixture was filtered through Celite® and the filtrate concentrated under vacuum. The resulting residue was triturated with diethyl ether to afford (S)-1-cyclobutyl-pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid. 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ: 4.41 (s, 1H), 3.86 (dt, 1H), 3.78-3.63 (m, 2H), 2.78 (m, 1H), 2.55 (m, 1H), 2.57-2.09 (m, 4H), 1.91 (m, 4H).
