Procedure
Combine (3-phenyl-5-oxopyrrolidin-3-yl)acetic acid ethyl ester (301 g, 1.25 mol) and tetrahydrofuran (3.5 L). Cool to about 5° C. Slowly, add portionwise over about 45 minutes a solution of lithium aluminum hydride in tetrahydrofuran (3.9 L, 1 M, 3.9 mol). After the addition is complete heat to 60° C. After 18 hours, cool in an ice-bath. Add water/tetrahydrofuran 1/1 (1.95 L) dropwise at such a rate that the temperature of the reaction mixture does not rise above 20° C. Dilute the reaction mixture with tetrahydrofuran (2.25 L) and stir. After 1.5 hours, filter the reaction mixture. Suspend the solids in diethyl ether (3 L) and filter. Combine the filtrates and concentrate the in vacuo to give a residue. Combine the residue and dichloromethane (4 L) and extract three times with water (1 L). Dry the organic layer over MgSO4, filter, and concentrate in vacuo to obtain a solid. Triturate the solid with diethyl ether (0.3 L), collect by filtration, rinse with diethyl ether, and dry to give the title compound: Rf=0.12 (silica gel dichloromethane/methanol/concentrated aqueous ammonia, 9/1/0.1).
