Easy approach to 3-benzylimino-2-pyrrolidinones from 3-chloro-4-chloromethyl-2-pyrrolidinones

open access: yesTetrahedron Letters, 1999
Abstract 3-Benzylimino-2-pyrrolidinones can be prepared in good yield by heating 3-chloro-4-chloromethyl-2-pyrrolidinones, benzylamine and NaI in THF at 80°C. An endo -dehydrohalogenation followed by a SN 2 ′ substitution on the intermediate allyl chloride, and finally a shift of the exo -double bond to Δ 3 with attendant tautomerization ...

Unexpected reaction of β-cyclodextrin tosylate with pyrrolidinones

open access: yesCarbohydrate Research, 2006
Substitution reactions of 6I-O-p-tolylsulfonylcyclomaltoheptaose with alkyl- and arylamines in 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone and various pyrrolidinones were investigated. An unexpected reaction of the tosyl group with pyrrolidinones was observed resulting in products deriving from nucleophilic attack by the lactam carbonyl oxygen and further opening of the ...

Synthesis of New Optically Active 2-Pyrrolidinones [PDF]

open access: yesMolecules, 2012
A new class of optically active 2-pyrrolidinones was synthesized, starting from S-pyroglutamic acid, a well known natural chiral synthon. The synthetic design followed led to the insertion of various substituents at positions 1 and 5 of the 2-pyrrolidinone ring, including the imidazole moiety.

Solvent effects on C?O stretching frequencies of some 1-substituted 2-pyrrolidinones

open access: yesJournal of Physical Organic Chemistry, 1998
In an effort to model solute–solvent interactions, the C=O stretching frequencies of five 1-substituted 2-pyrrolidinones and four other carbonyl-containing compounds were measured for 30 common solvents.

Lewis Base‐Catalysed Enantioselective Radical Conjugate Addition for the Synthesis of Enantioenriched Pyrrolidinones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
We report a catalytic asymmetric protocol for the preparation of chiral pyrrolidinones proceeding via a radical pathway. The chemistry exploits the combination of photoredox catalysis and Lewis base catalysis to realise the first example of asymmetric ...

A concise approach to functionalised, homochiral pyrrolidinones

open access: yesTetrahedron: Asymmetry, 1995
Abstract Acylation of O , N -acetal 1 gives excellent yields of the C-7 substituted products 2a,b . Alkylation of 2a under mild conditions gives high yields of the exo- 3 and endo- 4 substituted products in varying ratios, depending on the alkylating agent.

Synthesis of the Pyrrolidinone Core of KSM-2690 B

open access: yesOrganic Letters, 2007
[reaction: see text] The first synthesis of the pyrrolidinone core of the polyene beta-lactone antibiotic KSM-2690 B is described. An ammonia-free Birch reductive aldol reaction utilizing acetaldehyde is one of the key steps, together with a ruthenium-catalyzed alkene isomerization reaction.

Carbohydrate Physicochemical Properties: The Innate Hydrogen Bond Donating Capacities of α‐Glucoside and α‐Galactoside Alcohol Groups

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Experimental determination of the innate hydrogen bond donating capacities of the glucose and galactose non‐anomeric alcohols revealed significant variations depending on position and relative configuration, which were quantified on the pKAHY scale, relevant for MedChem purposes, hence providing another tool toward rational glycomimetic development ...

Steric and Electronic Influences on the Diastereoselectivity of the Rh2(OAc)4-Catalyzed C−H Insertion in Chiral Ester Diazoanilides:  Synthesis of Chiral, Nonracemic 4-Substituted 2-Pyrrolidinones

open access: yes, 2016
A series of N-substituted N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-α-(alkoxycarbonyl)-α-diazoacetanilides, 10 and ent-10, wherein the alkoxy unit is a chiral auxiliary group [(−)-7 or (+)-8)], was prepared.
