Procedure

To a solution of 4-{3-[2-(3-hydroxy-4-phenyl-butyl)-5-oxo-pyrrolidin-1-yl]-propyl}-benzoic acid methyl ester (2.28 g, 5.57 mmol) in MeOH (20 mL) was added 2N NaOH (5 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 h and was heated under reflux for 3 h. The volatiles were removed in vacuo and the residue was diluted with CH2Cl2 and 1N HCl. The aqueous solution was extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×) and the combined organic extracts were washed with brine. The organic solution was dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated to yield the title compound (2.03 g). 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.98 (d, 2H), 7.34-7.18 (m, 7H), 3.80 (m, 1H), 3.67 (m, 1H), 3.58 (m, 1H), 2.97 (m, 1H), 2.81 (m, 1H), 2.68 (m, 3H), 2.45-2.27 (m, 2H), 2.13-1.30 (m, 9H); MS 396.3 (M+1), 394.2 (M−1).
