HCID 133284325-Ethoxy-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-one

Procedure

A mixture of 2.3 g of 1,5-dihydro-5-hydroxy-2H-pyrrol-2-one in 140 cm3 of ethanol and 100 g of Amberlite resin IR-120 (H) is taken to reflux for 30 minutes. After allowing to cool, filtering off the resin and distilling the ethanol off under reduced pressure, 2.76 g of the expected product is obtained, m.p. 50°-52° C.
