Procedure

Combine 3-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-3-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrrolidine (2.27 g, 9.03 mmol) and N-methylmorpholine (2.48 mL, 22.6 mmol) in anhydrous dichloromethane (100 mL). Cool the reaction mixture to −5° C. with an salt-ice bath. Slowly, add 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl chloride (2.2 g, 9.5 mmol) as a solution in dichloromethane (30 mL). Warm to ambient temperature. After 18 hours, extract the reaction mixture with a saturated solution of potassium carbonate. Dry the organic layer over Na2SO4, filter, and concentrate in vacuo to obtain a residue. Chromatograph the residue on silica gel eluting with 95% dichloromethane/methanol to obtain a residue. Combine the residue and dichloromethane (100 mL), and extract 3 times with 1M hydrochloric acid solution and saturated solution of potassium carbonate. Dry the organic layer over Na2SO4, filter, and concentrate in vacuo to obtain a residue. Chromatograph the residue on silica gel eluting with 20/1 ethyl acetate/methanol to obtain an oil: Rf=0.14 (silica gel, 20/1 ethyl acetate/methanol). Dry in vacuo at 110° C. to obtain the title compound as a glass: mp; 60-62° C. Elemental Analysis calculated for C24H31NO7: C 64.70; H 7.01; N 3.14; Found C 64.40; H 7.21; N 2.85.
