Sodium Chloride → (2S, 4R)-1-(t-Butoxycarbonyl)-4-methanesulfonyloxy-2-methylcarbamoylpyrrolidine

Participants

Reaction Steps

7.11 ml of triethylamine were added, whilst ice-cooling, to a solution of 11.29 g of (2S, 4R)-1-(t-butoxycarbonyl)-2-methylcarbamoyl-4-hydroxypyrrolidine [prepared as described in step (1) above] dissolved in 120 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran, and then 3.93 ml of methanesulfonyl chloride were added to the resulting mixture, and the mixture was stirred at 0° to 5° C. for 30 minutes and then at 15° C. for 30 minutes. It was then poured into an aqueous solution of sodium chloride and extracted with ethyl acetate. The extract was washed with an aqueous solution of sodium chloride and dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was then removed by distillation under reduced pressure, giving 11.58 g of the title compound as colorless crystals.
