Abstract

N-tosyl amides and lactams can be prepared easily and under mild conditions by the inter-or intramolecular condensation of carboxylic acids and secondary sulfonamides. The coupling reagent used is dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide (DCC) in the presence of 4-pyrrolidinopyridine (4- PPY) and the reactions proceed readily, usually in high yield, at room temperature.
