Procedure

A mixture containing 0.7 g 4-(4-benzyloxyphenyl)1-hydroxy2-pyrrolidone (Example 2), 5.0 ml methyl iodide and 2.0 g potassium carbonate in 5.0 ml N-methylpyrrolidone was stirred for 2 h at 50° C. 20 ml 1N sodium hydroxide solution was then added and the solution was extracted with a mixture of 20 ml cyclohexane and 10 ml of ether. The extract was washed with water and concentrated in vacuo whereupon the product crystallized. yield 0.31 g (41%), mp 92°-97° C.
