Its 11-epimer was found as the product of racemization when BOP was used as the coupling agent, but not when BOP-C1 used in the same reaction. The stereochemistry of both isomers was confirmed on basis of the 1H NMR and NOE-difference spectra.展开更多
The mechanism of the formation of a key tricyclic lactam intermediate 3 was studied. It was found that the E-form compound 3 was transformed from the Z-form compound 4.

It was found that the E-form compound 3 was transformed from the Z-form compound 4. The formation of 4 was a kinetically controlled process while the formation of 3 was a thermodynamically favorable one. A possible mechanism was given in this paper.展开更多
