Procedure

A mixture of methyl 2-bromo-3-methoxypropanoate (132.0 mg, 0.66 mmol), 3,3-difluoropyrrolidine (70.6 mg, 0.66 mmol) and K2CO3 (91.2 mg, 0.66 mmol) in DMF (2 mL) was heated at 90° C. for 3 hours. The mixture was subjected to standard aqueous workup to afford a residue which was dissolved in THF/MeOH/H2O (3:2:1, 5 mL). LiOH (6N, 3.3 mmol) was added and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes. The solution was acidified to pH5 by addition of 6N HCl. All solvents were removed under vacuum to give a crude 2-(3,3-difluoropyrrolidin-1-yl)-3-methoxypropanoic acid (58) which was used without purification. MS m/z 210.1 (M+1)+.
