Procedure

Combine 1-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyl)-3-(phenylmethyl)-2-oxopyrrolidine (1.0 g, 2.81 mmol) and tetrahydrofuran (10 mL). Cool to −78° C. using a dry-ice/acetone bath. Add a solution of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide (3.09 mL, 1 M in THF, 3.09 mmol). After 30 minutes, add a solution of 2-(t-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl bromide (0.74 g, 3.09 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (1 mL). After the addition of 2-(t-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl bromide is complete, warm slowly to ambient temperature. After 2 hours, add water and extract three times with ethyl acetate. Dry the combined organic layers over Na2SO4, filter, and concentrate in vacuo to obtain a residue. Chromatograph the residue on silica gel eluting with 1/3 ethyl acetate/hexane to give the title compound: Rf=0.58 (silica gel, 1/3 ethyl acetate/hexane).
