Abstract: | A practical and improved synthesis of (3S,5S)-3-(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)methyl]-5-(methanesulfonyloxy)methyl]-2-pyrrolidinone (1) is described. The key transformations involve a highly efficient reaction sequence consisting of ethoxycarbonylation, alkylation, hydrolysis, and decarboxylation to produce compound 10. The process described herein is practical, robust, and cost-effective, and it has been successfully implemented in a pilot plant to produce a multikilogram quantity of mesylate 1. |
