Procedure
(R,S)-1-benzyl-3-[1'-(methylamino)ethyl]pyrrolidine (0.51 g of crude product) is dissolved in MeOH (10 ml) under a N2 atmosphere, Pearlman's catalyst and ammonium formate (0.89 g, 14.11 mmol) are then added. The reaction mixture is refluxed for 12 hours. The reaction mixture is then diluted with CH2Cl2 :MeOH (1:1) and filtered through a celite pad. The filtrate is washed with 15% aqueous NaOH:brine (1:1) and the aqueous layer is back extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×). The combined organic layers are dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated under a stream of N2 to give crude (R,S)-3-[1'-(methylamino)ethyl]pyrrolidine: 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 1.05 (d, J is 6.3 Hz, 3H), 1.43 (ddd, J is 17, 12, 9 Hz, 1H), 1.87 (m, 1H), 2.02 (dd, J is 16, 8 Hz, 1H), 2.38 (s, 3H), 2.41 (m, 1H), 2.61 (broad s, 2H), 2.65 (dd, J is 11, 8 Hz, 1H), 2.91-3.00 (m, 2H), 3.13 (dd, J is 11, 8 Hz, 1H). This material is suitable for use in various reactions including but not limited to the synthesis of quinolones.
