Photochemical Reaction between Tertiary Allylic Amines and Chromium Carbene Complexes: Synthesis of Lactams via a Zwitterion Aza Cope Rearrangement.
Photolysis of chromium carbene complexes in the presence of tertiary allylic amines resulted in a zwitterionic aza Cope rearrangement to produce unsaturated lactams in fair yield.
