Abstract

Owing to their important biological properties, 2-pyrrolidinones have received considerable attention by researchers and the interest continues to bloom. 1 The γ-lactam ring is frequently found in important drugs used in medicine. 2 Moreover, other bioactive molecules can be easily obtained by reduction of the 2-pyrrolidinone nucleus to give pyrrolidines, 3 or by cleavage of the amide bond. 4 The search for new procedures for the synthesis of 2- ...
