Procedure

8 g (46 mmol) of 4-fluoro-2-methoxy-1-nitrobenzene 1,80 ml of dioxane and 8.14 g (0.095 mol) of (R)-(+)-3-pyrrolidinol are respectively placed in the reactor. The mixture is refluxed for one hour. The reaction medium is poured into a mixture of water (100 ml)-ice (200 g). A yellow product precipitates. This product is filtered off, washed with water (3×30 ml) and then dried under vacuum at 45° C. 8.38 g (75%) of 1-(3-methoxy-4-nitrophenyl)pyrrolidin-3-ol (2) are thus recovered.
