Procedure
(R)-3-(Benzyloxycarbonylamino)-N-(t-butoxycarbonyl)-pyrrolidine (300 mg) was dissolved in ethanol (5 ml). Palladium on charcoal 10% (20 mg) was added. The reaction was degassed three times and put under hydrogen atmosphere (1 bar). The reaction was over after 2 hours. The solvent was removed, the residue was taken up in ethyl acetate (5 ml) and filtered through a silica gel pad. The silica was washed with ethyl acetate (50 ml). The organic phases were evaporated. The desired (R)-3-Amino-N-(t-butoxycarbonyl)-pyrrolidine was obtained as a colorless oil in a quantitative yield (175 mg).
