Abstract
In this work we present a direct catalytic synthesis of γ-lactams and pyrrolidines from alkenes and activated unsaturated amides or protected unsaturated amines, respectively. Using a mesityl acridinium single electron photooxidant and a thiophenol cocatalyst under irradiation, we are able to directly forge these important classes of heterocycles with complete regiocontrol.Entities:
