The transformation of N-substituted 3,4-dihydrospiro[quinoline-2,1'-cyclohexanes] 2 and 3 has been examined in strong acid media, at elevated temperature. It was demonstrated that the N-(gamma-cyanopropyl) spirodihydroquinolines 2 in the presence of concentrated sulfuric acid or PPA underwent hydrolysis affording the gamma-aminoacids 3. The spirodihydroquinoline ring rearrangement readily produces 4-(2-oxopyrrolidinyl-1)spiro[indane-1,1'-cyclohexanes] 5 in good yields. The structures of all synthesized compounds were established by means of homonuclear and inverse-detected 2D NMR experiments. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
