Yz. Pei et al., SYNTHESIS OF 4-AMINO-3,4-DIHYDRO-2(1H)-QUINOLINONES VIA BETA-LACTAM INTERMEDIATES ON THE SOLID-PHASE, Tetrahedron letters, 38(19), 1997, pp. 3349-3352
The synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-2(1H)-quinolinones has been accomplished
through me rearrangement of beta-lactam intermediates on the solid-pha
se. The beta-lactam intermediates were constructed through [2+2] cyclo
additions between ketenes and imines on the solid-phase. A library of
4,140 dihydroquinolinones has been produced using this synthetic proce
