## Abstract An efficient small scale synthesis of ^14^C labeled 1โvinylโ2โpyrrolidinone (NVP) is described. The cyclization of commercially available [1,2,3,4โ^14^C]โฮณโaminobutyric acid (GABA) gives [2,3,4,5โ^14^C]โ2โpyrrolidinone which is vinylized with vinyl acetate via a sodium tetrachloropallad

โฆ Synopsis
An efficient synthesis of 2-pyrrolidinone and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone was developed in which the compounds can be labeled with tritium at either the 3-and 4-positions or the 4-position of the lactam ring. Cyclization of [2 3-3Hl-yarninobutyric acid (GABA) yielded [ 3, $-$I -2pyrrolidinone and cyclization of [ 3 -HI-GABA, prepared by acid-catalyzed ex hange of tritium from by methylation of [3,4-IH] -2-pyrrolidinone using phase transfer catalysis, followed by basecatalyzed tritium exchange.
iodide and 2-pyrrolidinone, also using phase transfer catalysis.
-3H] -GABA, yielded [4-s HI -2-pyrrolidinone.
