Procedure
After potassium carbonate (18.24 g, 132.0 mmol) was added to a solution of cyclopropylamine (5.50 ml, 80.0 mmol) and (±)-α-bromo-γ-butyrolactone (3.32 ml, 42.0 mmol) in acetonitrile (80 ml), the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 8 hours. To the reaction mixture, water was added and then this was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column using hexane/ethyl acetate=1/1 as the eluant to give (±)-α-cyclopropylamino-γ-butyrolactone (4.10 g, yield 73%) as a yellow oil.
