Procedure

A mixture of tert-butyl ((R)-3-(4-methylbenzenesulfonyloxymethyl)pyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (Intermediate 207, 22.3 g) and sodium cyanide (6.13 g) in DMSO (100 mL) was stirred and heated at 100° C. for 4 hours. After cooling, a saturated aqueous solution of iron (II) sulphate was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 8 hours. The resultant mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4) and filtered. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness and the residue was purified by chromatography on silica, eluting with an mixture of ethyl acetate and petroleum ether (20%) to give tert-butyl (S)-3-cyanomethylpyrrolidine-1-carboxylate (12.3 g) as a white solid which was used without further characterisation.
