Abstract
Ethyl 4‐oxoalkanoates 1 react at ambient temperature in dry methanol in the presence of molecular sieve 3 Å in almost quantitative yield with 3‐aminopropanol and 2‐aminoethanol to form the bicyclic lactams rac‐2 and rac‐3, respectively. Surprisingly, the (±)‐5‐alkyl‐4‐oxa‐1‐azabicyclo[3.3.0]octan‐8‐ones rac‐3a–d dimerize in trichloromethane saturated with 2 N HCl to the ten‐membered heterocycles 4a–d. The structures of the substituted 1,6‐dioxa‐3,8‐diazacyclodecanes 4a and 4c have been determined by an X‐ray crystal analysis.
