Abstract

The phosphine-catalyzed [3 + 2]-cycloaddition of the 2-methylene gamma-lactams 4 and 5 and the acrylate 6 with the ylides derived from the ethyl ester, the amide or the chiral camphor sultam derivative of 2-butynoic acid (7a-c) give directly, or indirectly after reductive cyclization, spiro-heterocyclic products. The acid 32 underwent Curtius rearrangement and then acid hydrolysis to give two novel spirocyclic ketones, 41 and 42. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
