Procedure
To a solution of pyrrolidine (8.42 mL, 102 mmol, 4.0 eq) in toluene (30 mL), ethyl 4-bromobutyrate (3.8 mL, 26 mmol, 1.0 eq) was added and the reaction mixture was refluxed for 10 hours. The mixture was allowed to cool down to room temperature, the white solid present was filtered off and washed with Et2O. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title product which was used in the next step without further purification.
