21. Ratio of 3:4 after heating to 60°C: 3a:4a = 5:95 (4 h), 3b:4b = 1:13 (3 h), 3c:4c = 1:4.3 (3 h). Separation of 3 and 4 by column chromatography or HPLC, if necessary. In some experiments starting from pR-4, some pS-3 reamined as impurity. Usually, the reactant ratio (pS-3/pR-4) was completely transferred on generating the corresponding products (no epimerization).

51. Generally, the lactones 22 can be used as intermediates to generate the desired indolizidinones 19; after hydrogenolytic removal of the benzylamine, a subsequent lactone-lactam conversion should lead to the desired bicyclic products.

56. As a matter of principle, the lactam function can adopt four discrete arrangements: 2 x Z (pR and pS) and 2 x E (pR and pS) with respect to the oxygen and benzyl groups.

Lett. 2000, 2, 2415 (including kinetic measurements); force-field MM+ calculations had been carried out with Hyperchem by arranging C3 and C9 in a cis configuration with respect to the double-bond character of the lactam unit. Structures 11 and minor-11 as outlined in Scheme 5, data are given in Table 4. Potential trans-11 with C3 and C9 trans with respect to the double bond character of the lactam unit not shown.
