Potassium Carbonate → 3-(Carbamoylmethyl-amino)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of (R)-3-amino-1-N-Boc pyrrolidine (0.5 g, 2.68 mmol) and 2-bromo acetamide (0.44 g, 3.21 mmol) in DMF (6.0 mL) was added potassium carbonate (1.11 g, 8.04 mmol) and the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was concentrated and re-dissolved in dichloromethane. Potassium carbonate was filtered off and filtrate was concentrated and purified using ethyl acetate/methanol (5%). 1H-NMR (CDCl3) δ: 1.50 (9H, s), 1.60-1.80 (2H, m), 2.10 (1H, m), 3.10-3.60 (6H, m), 5.65 (1H, br, s), 6.90 (1H, br, s). ESI-MS m/z: 367 (M+1), UV retention time: 0.61 min.
