✦ Synopsis


The a-(2_arylhydrazino)-esters 1 react with i-propylmagnesium iodide to furnish 2-aryl-1,2-diazetidin-3-ones 2, which-in turn undergo ring-opening with methyllithium affording a-(2-arylhydrazino)-ketones 3.

As part of a program to study a-(2-arylhydrazino)-alkanone arylhydrazonesl the synthesis of a-(2-arylhydrazino)-ketones was devised, and thereby a novel access to the four-membered heterocyclic system of 1,2-diazetidin-3-ones (aza-8-lactams) was found.

Following standard procedures the 2-arylhydrazino isobutyric esters 1 are readily available starting compounds containing the required 1,2-disubstituted hydrazine moiety as has been unambiguously proved by the conversion into the corresponding arylazo ester2. The reaction of the esters 1 with Grignard compounds was anticipated to provide the desired a-(2-arylhydrazino)-ketones. In fact, the reaction of the esters 1 with methylmagnesium iodide furnished a mixture of two products (ratio 1:4): Beside the methylketones 3, the 1,2diazetidin-3-ones 2 were formed predominantly.
