Procedure

A mixture of (2S,4R)-1-t-butoxycarbonyl-4-methylsulfonyloxy-2-methoxycarbonylpyrrolidine (32.3 g) and sodium benzoate (28.8 g) in dimethyl sulfoxide (320 ml) was stirred at 90° C. overnight and cooled to room temperature. The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (600 ml) and washed successively with water and brine. The organic phase was dried over magnesium sulfate and the solvent was evaporated in vacuo to give an oil. The oil was crystallized from n-hexane to give (2S,4S)-4-benzoyloxy-1-t-butoxycarbonyl-2-methoxycarbonylpyrrolidine (31.0 g) as a colorless crystal.
