Hypervalent iodine mediated cyclization of bishomoallylamides to prolinols (2024)
Working Paper
Butt, S. E., Kepski, K., Sotiropoulos, J.-M., & Moran, W. J. Hypervalent iodine mediated cyclization of bishomoallylamides to prolinols

A change in mechanism was observed in the hypervalent iodine mediated cyclization of N-alkenylamides when the carbon chain between the alkene and the amide increased from two to three atoms. In the latter case, cyclization at the amide nitrogen to fo... Read More about Hypervalent iodine mediated cyclization of bishomoallylamides to prolinols.
