Triethylamine → Tert-butyl 3-(methanesulfonyloxy)pyrrolidine-1-carboxylate

Participants

Reaction Steps

N-Boc-3-pyrrolidinol (1000 mg) was dissolved in chloroform (20 ml). Triethylamine (1.15 ml) and methanesulfonyl chloride (498 μl) were added thereto at 0° C. After stirring at room temperature for 1.0 hour, ethyl acetate and water were added thereto to separate the organic layer. After being washed with a saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, a saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution and water, the organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain the title compound as a colorless, oily compound (1.2 g). Physical properties: m/z [M+H]+ 266.1
