Catalytic lactam synthesis was achieved directly from lactones and amines using an Ir catalyst. Three sequential transformations - aminolysis of lactone, N-alkylation of amine with hydroxyamide, and intramolecular transamidation of aminoamide - afforded the corresponding N-substituted lactams.

In our continued efforts to improve the potential utility of the α-methylene-γ-lactone scaffold, 62 new and 59 known natural α-methylenelactam analogues including α-methylene-γ-lactams, α-arylidene-γ and δ-lactams, and 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones were synthesized as the bioisosteric analogues of the α-methylenelactone scaffold. The results of antifungal and cytotoxic activity indicated that among these derivatives compound (E)-1-(2, 6-dichlorobenzyl)-3-(2-fluorobenzylidene) pyrrolidin-2-one (Py51) possessed good selectivity with the highest antifungal activity against Colletotrichum orbiculare with IC50?=?10.4?μM but less cytotoxic activity with IC50?=?141.2?μM (against HepG2 cell line) and 161.2?μM (against human hepatic L02?cell line). Ultrastructural change studies performed by transmission electron microscope showed that Py51 could cause important cell morphological changes in C.?orbiculare, such as plasma membrane detached from cell wall, cell wall thickening, mitochondria disruption, a dramatic increase in vacuolation, and eventually a complete loss in the integrity of organelles. Significantly, mitochondria appeared one of the primary targets, as confirmed by their remarkably aberrant morphological changes. Analysis of structure–activity relationships revealed that incorporation of the aryl group into the α-exo-methylene and the N-benzyl substitution increased the activity. Meanwhile, the α-arylidene-γ-lactams have superiority in selectivity over the 3-arylideneindolin-2-ones. Based on the results, the N-benzyl substituted α-(2-fluorophenyl)-γ-lactam was identified as the most promising natural-based scaffold for further discovering and developing improved crop-protection agents.
Rh-catalyzed intramolecular debenzylative cyclization of amines. Butyrolactams from benzylamines having a chloroacetylene moiety

When benzylamines having a chloroacetylene moiety were heated in wet toluene with a catalytic amount of rhodium trifluoroacetate dimer, intramolecular debenzylative cyclization took place to give butyrolactams. This method is a new entry to selective debenzylation of amines.
