Phenyldimethylsilyllithium reacts with N-phenylpyrrolidone 5 to give the known tetracyclic amines [2,3,3a,3b,4,5,6,11b-octahydro-3aα,3bα,11bα-1-phenyl-1H- dipyrrolo(1,2a:3′,2′c)quinoline and its 3bβ isomer] 6 and 7.

The reactions of the silyllithium reagent with tertiary amides was discussed. The enediamines were easily isomerized from cis to trans, easily oxidized to dienediamines and were hydrolyzed to α-aminoketones. If the two equivalents of the silyllithium reagent were used, the product was an α-silylamine. The results show that each member of the homologous series of amides gives rise to a substantially different product.
