Reaction Steps

A solution of 10.96 g of N-methoxycarbonyl-3-(2-ethoxycarbonyl-3-dimethylaminoacryloyl)-4-pyrrolidino-2,5-dihydropyrrole and 20 g of ammonium acetate in 250 ml of dry ethanol is refluxed for 90 minutes. The solution is cooled in an ice bath and the precipitate is filtered off to yield ethyl 4-hydroxy-5,7-dihydro-6-methoxycarbonylpyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridine-3-carboxylate, mp 274°-276° (dec); NMR (CF3COOD): 11.08 (s), 9.14 (s), 5.20 (s), 5.00 (s), 4.65 (q), 3.99 (s) and 1.52 (t).
