Methods focusing on functionalizing the periphery of azacyclic scaffolds have become increasingly popular. Experimental observations show that the regioselectivity of C-C cleavage can be altered by changing the ligand set used in the coupling chemistry.
Methods that functionalize the periphery of azacylic scaffolds have garnered increasing interest in recent years. Herein, we investigate the selectivity of a solid-state Norrish-Yang cyclization (NYC) and subsequent C-C cleavage/cross-coupling reaction of a strained cyclopropane-fused azacyclic system. Surprisingly, the NYC primarily furnished a single lactam constitutional and diastereo-isomer. The regioselectivity of the C-C cleavage of the alpha-hydroxy-beta-lactam moiety could be varied by altering the ligand set used in the coupling chemistry. Experimental and computational observations are discussed.
