A Photochemical Two-Step Formal [5+2] Cycloaddition: A Condensation/Ring-Expansion Approach to Substituted Azepanes.


ABSTRACT: Seven-membered nitrogen-containing heterocycles are considerably underrepresented in the literature compared to their five- and six-membered analogues. Herein, we report a relatively understudied photochemical rearrangement of N-vinylpyrrolidinones to azepin-4-ones in good yields. This transformation allows for the conversion of readily available pyrrolidinones and aldehydes to densely functionalized azepane derivatives in a facile two step procedure.
