Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 5 g (0.0394 mol) of oxalyl chloride in 50 ml of CH2Cl2 at -60° is added dropwise 7 g (0.0833 mol) of DMSO. The solution is stirred 30 minutes at -60° and then 10 g (0.039 mol) of N-tosylprolinol is added over five minutes at 60° and 15 ml of triethylamine is added. The solution is warmed to 25° and stirred one hour. The solution is then washed with H2O, dried over MgSO4 and the solvents removed. The residual oil, 10 g, is purified using a silica gel column and CHCl3 :MeOH (90:10) as the eluates. An oil is obtained which solidifies, 9.5 g (96%), mp 139°-140°.
