摘要:
Two equivalents of anhydrous m-chloroperbenzoic acid (m-CPBA) cleaved the pyridone ring of 10-(3-chlorophenyl)-6,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[b][1,8]naphthyridin-5(7H)-one, forming the ten-membered lactam alpha-diketone 12-(3-chlorophenyl)-7,8,9,10-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-b]azecine-5,6,11(12H)-trione. Under aqueous conditions, one equivalent of m-CPBA and the same pyridone formed the lactam alpha-ketol 12-(3-chlorophenyl)-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-6-hydroxypyrido[2,3-b]azecine-5,11(6H, 12H)-dione, which partly confirmed the postulated mechanism of ring cleavage.
