Procedure

To a suspension of 1-benzhydryl-3-methylaminoazetidine-3-carboxylic acid amide (I-2A-69b; 13.5 g, 45.8 mmol) in methanol (90 ml) was added concentrated aqueous HCl (8.0 ml, 96 mol), dropwise, to give a homogeneous solution. After the addition of 20% Pd(OH)2 on carbon (50% water; 4.1 g), the mixture was placed on a Parr® shaker and then reduced (50 psi H2) at room temperature for 7 hours. The mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite®, washing with a copious amount of 9:1 methanol/water, and then 9:1 tetrahydrofuran/water until no product eluted (determined with ninhydrin stain). The filtrate was then concentrated, in vacuo, and the residue was then triturated from diethyl ether to give I-2A-90a (9.3 g, quantitative) as a brown solid: +APcl MS (M+1) 129.9; 1H NMR (400 MHz, CD3OD) δ 4.50 (d, J=12.0 Hz, 2H), 4.43 (d, J=12.9 Hz, 2H), 2.64 (s, 3H).
