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