Abstract
N-(3-Hydroxypropyl)-2-nitro-N-(ω-phenylalkyl)acetami-des underwent intramolecular cyclization in triflic acid to afford the corresponding hydroxyimino six- to nine-membered benzofused lactams. The six-membered derivative slowly transformed into 2-(3-hydroxypropyl)isoquinolin-3-one. NMR spectroscopic analysis in situ provided information on the cationic species involved in the reaction, permitting a mechanism to be postulated. This reaction provides a novel and simple route to benzofused lactams.

- 22 X-ray intensity data were collected on a Bruker X8-APEX2 CCD area-detector diffractometer using Mo Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å). Three sets of narrow data frames (120 s per frame) were collected at different values of θ, for 1 and 2 initial values of φ and ω, respectively, using 0.5° increments of φ or ω. Data reduction was accomplished using SAINT V7.03.20 The substantial redundancy in data allowed a semiempirical absorption correction (SADABS V2.10)20 to be applied, on the basis of multiple measurements of equivalent reflections. The structure was solved by direct methods, developed by successive difference Fourier syntheses, and refined by full-matrix least-squares on all F 2 data using SHELXTL V6.14.21 Hydrogen atoms were included in calculated positions and allowed to ride on their parent atoms. Crystal data, data collection, and processing parameters were deposited at the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre under the reference CCDC-875333.
