反応手順

To oven dried round bottom flask is added S,S-EBTHITiF2 (100 mgs, 0.3 mmol) and diluted with THF (5 mL). The flask is sealed and purged with argon. To the yellow solution is added phenylsilane (4.6 mL, 37.5 mmol), pyrrolidine (100 uL, 1.1 mmol), and anhydrous methanol (100 uL, 1.1 mmol). The resulting yellow mixture is stirred for 45 minutes until green color persisted. A solution of 5-(3-phenoxy-phenyl)-3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole (1.2 g, 5.05 mmol) in THF (2 mL) is added to the catalyst and the mixture is stirred for 8 hrs. The reaction is carefully quenched with 10% HCl (100 mL) until gas evolution subsided and the pH˜2. The mixture is diluted with EtOAc (100 mL) and the aqueous layer is removed, neutralized with 3M NaOH (50 mL) until basic and extracted with EtOAc (3×100 mL). The organics were combined, dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressures. The solid residue is purified by silica gel column chromatography (100% EtOAc) to give (S)-2-(3-phenoxy-phenyl)-pyrrolidine as a yellow solid (580 mgs, 48%). LCMS m/z 240.1 (M+1).
