Beckmann Rearrangement Of Cyclotriveratrylene (Ctv) Oxime: Tandem Beckmann-Electrophilic Aromatic Addition, Marlon R. Lutz Jr., Matthias Zeller, Daniel P. Becker

Chemistry: Faculty Publications and Other Works

The Beckmann rearrangement has been performed on the oxime of cyclotriveratrylene (CTV) with thionyl chloride affording the ring-expanded 10-membered ring amide exclusively in high yield. Modified conditions afford a helical pentacycle derived from an unusual tandem Beckmann rearrangement and electrophilic aromatic addition followed by demethylation and tautomerization.
