Benzoic Acid → HCID 45087249, compound

To a solution of (R)-3-hydroxy-1-prop-2-ynyl-pyrrolidine (200 mg, 1.59 mmol) (see Example 92A), benzoic acid (230 mg, 1.91 mmol) (Aldrich) and triphenyl phosphine (628 mg, 2.39 mmol) (Aldrich) in 25 mL of THF, was added diisopropyl azodicarboxylate (485 mg, 2.39 mmol) (Aldrich) at 0° C. The mixture was stirred for 1.25 hr and then partitioned between EtOAc and aqueous saturated Na2CO3. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, concentrated, and the residue was passed through a silica gel column with a 0-50% EtOAc in hexanes gradient. The resulting intermediate benzoate ester promptly was dissolved in 15 mL of MeOH, and K2CO3 (439 mg, 3.18 mmol) was added. After stirring for 36 hr, the reaction mixture was filtered and concentrated. (S)-3-Hydroxy-1-prop-2-ynyl-pyrrolidine was obtained after silica gel column chromatography with neat THF and triturating with pentane. (Yield 102 mg, 51%).
