Abstract: | Chlorosulfonyl isocyanate adds to α-pinene in concerted fashion to give the unrearranged N-chlorosulfonyl-β-lactam 2 (75%). Thermolysis of cycloadduct 2 affords the rearranged N-chlorosulfonyl-γ-lactam 6 (60%) via a sequence of transient carbonium ions (45). Reductive hydrolysis of 2 and 6 gave, respectively, the NH-β-lactam 3 (70%) and the NH-γ-lactam 7 (70%). Proof of structure of the rearranged γ-lactams 6 and 7 are provided, respectively, by X-ray crystallographic analysis and the application of the Eu(dpm)3 NMR shift reagent. |
