N-Arylazetidin-2-ones of the general form 1, which are readily prepared by GoldbergBuchwald-type copper-catalyzed coupling of N-unsubstituted azetidin-2-ones with the relevant aryl halide or using Mitsunobu cyclization processes, undergo smooth Fries-rearrangement in triflic acid at 018°C to give the isomeric 2,3-dihydro-4(1H)-quinolones (2). Dehydrogenation of the latter compounds using 10% Pd on C in 1.0M aqueous sodium hydroxide/propan-2-ol mixtures at ca. 82°C provides the corresponding 4(1H)-quinolones (3).

A variety of 1-arylazetidin-2-ones were treated with trifluoroacetic acid under reflux, methanesulphonic acid at 100 deg C, or conc. sulphuric acid to give the corresponding 2,3-dihydro-4(1H)-quinolones via acyl migration and N-CO fission.In the case of 1-(3-substituted phenyl)azetidin-2-ones, two positional isomeric products, 5- and 7-substituted 2,3-dihydro-4(1H)-quinolones were obtained. 4-Methyl, 4-ethoxycarbonyl, and 4-piperidin-2-yl-1-arylazetidin-2-ones and their analogues were also converted into the corresponding 2-substituted 2,3-dihydro-4(1H)-quinolones under acidic conditions.The 3-substituted 1-phenylazetidin-2-ones (36) and (37) were converted into the furoquinoline systems (38) and (40), respectively, by application of this method.
