Reaction Steps

40.5 of 1-(3-methoxyphenyl)-2-(1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinyl)ethanone are boiled under reflux for 6 hours with 180 ml of acetic acid and 180 ml of 47% hydrobromic acid. After concentration of the solution, the oily residue is brought to crystallization through treatment with 150 ml of hot ethanol. Cooling is allowed to take place, and 39.8 g (76% of theory) of the hydrobromide of the title compound is filtered off as greenish crystals: m.p. 165° to 168°.
