Reaction Steps

To a solution of azetidine-1,3-dicarboxylic acid mono-tert-butyl ester (3.5 g, 17 mmol) in DMF (50 mL) was added O,N-dimethyl-hydroxylamine hydrochloride (3.4 g, 34 mmol), triethylamine (9.6 mL, 69 mmol), HATU (13.4 g, 34.6 mmol) and DCM (125 mL). After stirring for 16 h, saturated NaHCO3 solution and ethyl acetate were added. The aqueous portion was extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic fractions were dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated and the crude product was purified using RP HPLC (basic conditions) to provide the title compound (3.5 g, 83%) MS (ESI): mass calcd. for C11H20N2O4, 244.1; m/z found, 189.1 [M-t-Bu]+. 1H NMR (CDCl3): 4.14-4.03 (m, 2H), 4.05 (t, J=8.7 Hz, 2H), 3.66 (s, 3H), 3.63-3.59 (m, 1H), 3.21 (s, 1H), 1.43 (s, 9H).
