✦ Synopsis


The intramolecular cyclizations of oxazolidinones with carbanions adjacent to sulfones, sulfoxides and phosphonates proceed in high yields to obtain functionalized Ξ³ and Ξ΄ lactams. The chiral oxazolidinone precursors can be readily synthesized from commercial amino acids. The lactams from this study are useful synthetic intermediates, as demonstrated by the synthesis of a precursor for levetiracetam, an antiepileptic drug.
