Abstract
A series of simple monocyclic p-lactams bearing side-chains, containing ami no groups, have been synthesized, and the rate of their intramolecular tran samidation studied. Protection of the amino group with an enzymatically cle avable group, allows us to selectively control the ring enlargement process . (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
