Transannular reactions in the dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptene series. III. Preparation of 11-substituted-10,11-dihydro-10,5-(iminomethano)-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cycloheptenes
Keyword(s):
Treatment of the syn-epoxyamide 3 with either ammonium hydroxide or sodium hydride gives 10,11-dihydro-anti-11-hydroxy-10,5-(iminomethano)-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-13-one (1a). This compound is readily converted to the syn-epimer 1c by oxidation to 1b and subsequent hydrogenation. The ketone 1b reacts with Grignard reagents to give the tertiary alcohols 1k,l which undergo hydrogenolysis to give the 11-substituted lactams 1q,r. Reduction of the lactams with lithium aluminium hydride gives the corresponding amines.
