Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (2S,4R)-1-p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl-2-acetoxymethyl-4-hydroxypyrrolidine (1.55 g) in ethanol (23 ml), 10% palladium-carbon (233 mg) and acetic acid (330 mg) were added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours under an atmospheric pressure of hydrogen. The reaction mixture was filtered to remove the catalyst. The filtrate was concentrated to remove the solvent. The residue was combined with water, washed with dichloromethane and concentrated to give (2S,4R)-2-acetoxymethyl-4-hydroxypyrrolidine acetate.
