To a stirred suspension of (R)-(−)-5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-pyrrolidinone (Sigma Aldrich Chemical Company, St. Louis, Mo., 5.36 g, 46.5 mmol) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (44 mg, 0.233 mmol) in toluene (100 mL), 2,2-dimethoxypropane (17.1 mL, 140 mmol) was added and the reaction was refluxed for 1.5 h. The reaction was equipped with a Dean-Stark apparatus then additional 2,2-dimethoxypropane (17.1 mL, 140 mmol) was added and the reaction was refluxed for 36 h. The solvent was evaporated to afford (R)-3,3-dimethyltetrahydropyrrolo[1,2-c]oxazol-5(3H)-one as an orange waxy solid. MS (ESI) 156.1 [M+H]+. The crude material was taken to the next step without further purification.
