Procedure
2.0 g (5.54 mmol) (RS)-1-[4-(3,4-Difluoro-benzyloxy)-phenyl]-5-oxo-pyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester is dissolved in 50 ml THF. 1.05 g (27.7 mmol) of sodium borohydride is added and the reaction mixture boiled under reflux for 24 hours. Water is added and the product is extracted with ethyl acetate to yield 1.68 g (91%) of a yellowish solid. MS: m/e=334.3 (M+H)+.
