Procedure
5-Benzyl-hexahydro-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-2-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (19.85 g, 65.6 mmol), MeOH (200 mL), HOAc (3 mL) and 10% Pd/C Degussa type (400 mg) were charged to a Parr shaker vial and shaken for 3 days at 70 psi hydrogen gas. The resulting material was filtered through Celite® and concentrated. The crude mixture was purified by flash column chromatography (FCC), DCM to 10% MeOH/DCM containing 1% NH4OH, to afford the product. MS (ESI) mass calcd. for C11H20N2O2, 212.29; m/z found, 213.2 [M+H]+. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): 3.60-3.55 (m, 2H), 3.38-3.25 (m, 4H), 2.95-2.86 (m, 4H), 1.47 (s, 9H).
