Conversion of Five‐, Six‐, and Seven‐Membered Lactams to Racemic or Scalemic 2‐Substituted Heterocycles by Amidoalkylation.

Abstract

Pyridine derivatives R 0380Conversion of Five-, Six-, and Seven-Membered Lactams to Racemic or Scalemic 2-Substituted Heterocycles by Amidoalkylation. -The process offers an efficient route to racemic and enantiopure 2-substituted pyrrolidines, piperidines, and azepanes. -(MADAN, S.; MILANO, P.; EDDINGS, D.
