Efficient Synthesis of ?-Aryl-?-lactams and Their Resolution with (S)-Naproxen: Preparation of (R)- and (S)-Baclofen.


ABSTRACT: An efficient synthesis of enantiomerically-pure ?-aryl-?-lactams is described. The principal feature of this synthesis is the practical resolution of ?-aryl-?-lactams with (S)-Naproxen. The procedure is based on the Michael addition of nitromethane to benzylidenemalonates, which was easily obtained, followed by the reduction of the ?-nitroester in the presence of Raney nickel and the subsequent saponification/decarboxylation reaction. The utility of this methodology was highlighted by the preparation of enantiomerically-pure (R)- and (S)-Baclofen hydrochloride.
