Procedure

Following the method of W. Steglich, et al., Liebigs, Ann. Chem., 1753, 1974, (21.0 gm) of glutamic acid in 75 ml of acetic anhydride, 150 mg of 4-dimethylamino-pyridine, and 75 ml of triethylamine was heated 60° C. overnight. The reaction mixture was then concentrated in vacuo, the residue taken up in dichloromethane and washed with water. The organic portion was treated with charcoal, filtered, concentrated and 1,5-diacetyl-2-pyrroidone was obtained crystalline from ether-dichloromethane, mp 62° C. 'H NMR (δ CDCl3): 1.8-2.8 (m, CH2), 2.3 (s, 3H, CH3), 2.55 (s, 3H, CH3), 4.8-5.0 ppm (dd, 1H, CHN).
