Reaction Steps

To a suspension of lithium aluminum hydride (5.40 g) in tetrahydrofuran (150 ml) was added dropwise a suspension (350 mL) of N-benzyl-5-oxo-D-prolinamide (11.0 g) in tetrahydrofuran under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred with heating at 60° C. for 14 hr. The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C., water (10.8 mL), 1M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (5.4 mL) and water (5.4 mL) were added, and the resultant insoluble material was filtered off. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title compound (8.95 g) as a pale-yellow oil. This compound was used for the next reaction without further purification.
