Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of tert-butyl 2-(2-chloroacetyl)pyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (5 g, 20.24 mmol) in 200 mL of acetone was added 3 g (20.24 mmol) of NaI. The reaction was let to stir at room temperature for 18 h. The reaction was monitored by TLC (20% EtOAc/hexanes, the plate was developed by KMnO4 stain). The reaction mixture was filtered over celite, concentrated and dried to afford tert-butyl 2-(2-iodoacetyl)pyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (8 g, 99% yield). 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 1.45 (d, 9H), 1.99 (s, 3H), 2.20 (m, 1H), 3.50 (m, 2H), 4.90 (m, 2H), 4.50 (m, 1H).
