Abstract:Several N‐ethoxycarbonylmethyl enaminones, prepared by Eschenmoser sulfide contraction between N‐(ethoxycarbonylmethyl)‐pyrrolidine‐2‐thione and various ortho‐oxygenated phenacyl halides, underwent cyclisation to give ethyl 6‐aryl‐2,3‐dihydro‐1H‐pyrrolizine‐5‐carboxylates upon microwave heating with silica gel in xylene. With enaminones made from ortho‐hydroxyphenacyl halides, not only did dihydropyrrolizine formation take place, but spontaneous lactonisation also occurred to give 9,10‐dihydrochromeno[4,3‐b]py… Show more
