Reaction Steps

(S)-N-((3aS,4S,6aR)-2-Benzyloctahydrocyclopenta[c]pyrrol-4-yl)-2-methylpropane-2-sulfinamide (855 mg, 2.67 mmol) from Step B and 2 N HCl (10 mL, 40.0 mmol) were combined in methanol (10 mL). After 30 minutes, the solvent was removed and the crude material was purified on a silica gel cartridge (Analogix®, Burlington, Wis., RS-25) loading with 10% methanol (2 N ammonia)/dichloromethane solution and eluting with 2-10% methanol (2 N ammonia)/dichloromethane to give (3aS,4S,6aR)-2-benzyloctahydrocyclopenta[c]pyrrol-4-amine: 1H NMR (500 MHz, pyridine-d5) δ ppm 7.44 (d, J=7.4, 2H), 7.36 (t, J=7.5, 2H), 7.28 (t, J=7.3, 1H), 3.52 (q, J=13.0, 2H), 3.29 (q, J=7.3, 1H), 2.84 (dd, J=3.7, 9.3, 1H), 2.55-2.43 (m, 3H), 2.37-2.30 (m, 1H), 2.24 (d, J=5.3, 1H), 1.74-1.64 (m, 2H), 1.62-1.53 (m, 1H), 1.34 (dd, J=5.0, 10.1, 1H).
