Procedure
7 mL of thionyl chloride was dissolved in 50 mL of methanol in an ice-water bath, followed by addition of pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid 10a (5 g, 43.40 mmol). The mixture was warmed up to room temperature and stirred for 24 hours. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain methylpyrrolidine-2-carboxylate 10b (10 g) crude product as a white solid, which was directly used in the next step without purification.
