Procedure

A solution of (2S,4S)-2-(chloroacetylamino)methyl-1-(4-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)-4-(triphenylmethylthio)pyrrolidine (1.0 g), potassium cyanate (1.3 g) and tetra-n-butylammonium iodide (0.2 g) in acetonitrile (50 ml) was stirred at 60°-80° C. for 8 hours To a reaction mixture was added ethyl acetate (150 ml) and the organic layer was separated, washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo. The resulting residue was chromatographed on silica gel (50 g) eluting with a mixture of chloroform and acetone (9:1, V/V). The fractions containing the desired compound were collected and evaporated in vacuo to give (2S,4S)-2-(2,5-dioxoimidazolidin-1-yl)methyl-1-(4-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl)-4-(triphenylmethylthio)pyrrolidine (0.82 g).
