Reaction Steps

Zinc powder (130 mg, 2.00 mmol) was added to a solution of 3-benzyl-3-(3,3-dibromo-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-5-carbonyl)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (115 mg, 0.20 mmol) in acetic acid (4 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred vigorously at room temperature for 1 hour. Solids were removed by filtration, and the filtrate was concentrate under reduced pressure to give 3-benzyl-3-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-5-carbonyl)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester as a foam. The same procedure was repeated using the 3-benzyl-3-(3-bromo-2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-5-carbonyl)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester to provide additional 3-benzyl-3-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-5-carbonyl)-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester.
