Abstract
Microwave assisted synthesis of 1-acetyl-2-benzylpyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid and its derivatives has been developed with highly encouraging yields. 2-Benzyl-tert-butylpyrrolidine-1,2-dicarboxylate is used as an initial compound in the four steps synthesis of the target compounds. Structures of the products 5a–5h have been confirmed by spectroscopic methods. According to antimicrobial tests 1-acetyl-2-benzylpyrrolidine-2-carboxamide 5c is determined to be the most potent product.
