A key step in a short synthesis of 1-epihydantocidin (2) is the unanticipated transformation of azidolactones (8) and (10) to a bicyclic amine (12) induced by tetra-n-propyl-ammonium perruthenate in the presence of morpholine-N-oxide. The structure of (12) was established by X-ray crystallographic analysis.

Tetra-n-propyl ammonium perruthenate in the presence of morpholine-N-oxide induced the unanticipated transformation of the epimeric alpha-azido-1,4-lactones 4 into the bicyclic amine 3 and provided the key step in the synthesis of 5-epihydantocidin 2. Brief investigations into the acid catalysed equilibration of hydantocidin 1 and 5-epihydantocidin 2 are described.
