Participants

Reaction Steps

Combine 1-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl)-3-(pyrid-3-yl)-3-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrrolidine (0.45 g, 1.16 mmol) in dichloromethane (6 mL). Cool in an ice bath. Add methanesulfonyl chloride (0.015 mL, 1.15 mmol) and triethylamine (0.032 mL, 1.6 mmol). After 1 hour, dilute the reaction mixture with dichloromethane and extract with brine. Separate the layers and extract the aqueous layers twice with dichloromethane. Combine the organic layers. Dry over MgSO4, filter, and evaporate in vacuo to give the title compound.
