Procedure

5 g (1′R,3R)-1-(1′Phenylethyl)-5-oxo-3-pyrrolidine carboxylic acid was dissolved in 50 mL tetrahydrofuran, then the solution was cooled to 0° C. 16.5 mL borane dimethyl sulfide (2 M in tetrahydrofuran) was added dropwise over 30 min and the reaction solution was slowly warmed to 25° C. and stirred for a further 2 h at 25° C. The reaction mixture was concentrated, diluted in dichloromethane and washed with sodium bicarbonate solution. The water phase was extracted with dichloromethane (×2) and the combined organic phases were dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated.
