A cyanoborohydride-promoted radical cyclization methodology has been developed to access α-chlorolactams in a simple and efficient way using NaBH3CN and trichloroacetamides easily available from allylic and homoallylic secondary amines. This methodology allowed the synthesis of a library of α-chlorolactams (mono- and bicyclic), which were tested for herbicidal activity, trans-3-chloro-4-methyl-1-(3-trifluoromethyl)phenyl-2-pyrrolidinone being the most active.

Radical reactions of alkyl halides, initiated by photolysis in the presence of decacarbonyldimanganese, can be performed in biphasic media. Reactions in the presence of aqueous sodium hydroxide together with a phase-transfer catalyst result in the efficient removal of manganese halide by-products and also lead to the regeneration of decacarbonyldimanganese. A range of efficient radical couplings, cyclisations and intermolecular addition reactions were performed under these conditions. This included the development of a new tandem radical addition-ionic cyclisation sequence that was employed in a short approach to (±)-coronamic acid. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
