Procedure
A mixture of (3R,4R)-3,4-dibenzyloxy-pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile (13 g, 42.2 mmol), potassium carbonate (8.7 g, 63 mmol), potassium iodide (0.1 g), benzyl bromide (7.5 ml, 63.2 mmol) and acetone (200 ml) were heated at reflux temperature for 4 hours. The mixture was cooled, filtered and the filtrate evaporated to dryness in vacuo to give the title compound as an oil. Purification of the crude product on a silica gel column (Eluent: From 100% heptane to 100% ethyl acetate) afforded (3R,4R)-1-benzyl-3,4-dibenzyloxy-pyrrolidine-2-carbonitrile (8.2 g, yield: 49%) as an oil.
