A photochemical protocol using blue light allows the N–H insertion of amides, isatins, sulfonamides and imides into aryldiazoacetates to afford the corresponding α-amino esters. This method is experimentally simple, inexpensive and tolerates numerous functional groups, thus allowing the straightforward preparation of a variety of α-aryl amino acid derivatives in good yields.
5-nitromethyl-1-azabicyclo[3.3.0]octane (1), was prepared in one step from 1,7-dichloro-4-heptanone (4) under mild conditions. Catalytic hydrogenation of 1 over Raney Ni in the presence of sodium hydroxide afforded 5-aminomethyl-1-azabicyclo[3.3.0]octane (2) in high yield. Piracetam analogues 20-23, which were pyrrolidine derivatives involving a 1-azabicyclo[3.3.0]octane ring, were synthesized. Pharmacological
