Procedure

2,4-Dibromobutyryl bromide (BBBB, 12.13 g, 0.039 mole) was added via an addition funnel to a cold (5° C.), well stirred slurry of 4-aminobenzonitrile (4-ABN, 4.0 g, 0.034 mole), Na3PO4 (3.05 g, 0.019 mole) and acetonitrile (42 mL) while maintaining a temperature below 30° C. during the addition. The addition funnel was rinsed with acetonitrile (2 mL). Upon completion of the coupling (determined by LC), K2CO3 (9.36 g, 0.069 mole) was added via an addition funnel while maintaining the reaction temperature below 30° C. Upon completion of the reaction (determined by LC), the slurry was filtered. The flask and the cake were washed with acetonitrile (40 mL). The filtrate and the wash were combined to afford a solution of 4-(3-bromo-2-oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)benzonitrile in acetonitrile. Qualitative LC analysis showed the product with 96.1 area % purity.
