Go with the flow! A method for conversion of keto halides to lactams by means of sequential azidation and intramolecularSchmidtreaction in a combined flowformat is described (see scheme; MWI=microwave irradiation, TFA=trifluoroacetic acid).

Pre-equilibration of an interconverting set of isomeric allylicazides is coupled with an intramolecular Schmidt reaction to afford substituted lactams stereoselectively. The effect of substitution and a preliminary mechanistic study are reported. The synthetic potential of this method is demonstrated in the context of an enantioselective synthesis of an advanced intermediate leading toward pinnaic

carrying out the intramolecularSchmidtreaction of alkylazides and ketones using a substoichiometric amount of catalyst is reported. Following extensive screening, the use of the strong hydrogen-bond-donating solvent hexafluoro-2-propanol was found to be consistent with low catalyst loadings, which ranged from 2.5 mol % for favorable substrates to 25 mol % for more difficult cases.
