title: Ru-catalyzed cyclocarbonylation of alpha- and beta-allenic sulfonamides: synthesis of gamma- and delta-unsaturated lactams.
abstract: [reaction: see text]. The Ru-catalyzed cyclocarbonylation of alpha- or beta-allenic sulfonamides in the presence of Ru(3)(CO)(12) (1 mol %) and Et(3)N (1.5 equiv) under CO atmosphere (20 atm) in dioxane at 100 degrees C for 9 h gave heterocyclic gamma- and delta-unsaturated lactams in good yields.
