9. A solution of the lactam and Lawesson's reagent (0.5 equiv) was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 h in dichloromethane, the solvent removed, and the product purified by flash chromatography [EtOAc/petrol (40:60) 2:3].

17. The starting material (0.1 g) was dissolved in THF (2 mL) and LiHMDS (1. 5 equiv) added at 0°C. tert-Butyl bromoacetate (2 equiv) in THF (3 mL) was added after 15 min at 0°C. The reaction was allowed to come to rt, stirred for 7 h and quenched at 0°C using saturated aqueous ammonium chloride, the organic layer washed with water, brine and dried over magnesium sulfate. The product was purified by column chromatography [20% EtOAc, light petroleum (40:60)].
