33. These compounds were synthesized by the same reaction sequence as 6 starting with the α-alkylation of β-hydroxyester 3 with 1-bromo-hex-2-ene and 1-bromo-undec-2-ene, respectively. Hydrazinolysis followed by Curtius rearrangement and N→π-cyclization with mercury(II) acetate gave the bicyclic compounds in 67% and 69% yields over four steps, respectively.
34. Alkylation experiments with bromide 9 also afforded β-oxoester 11 but only in poor yields (20%). Therefore bromide 9 was converted to the more reactive iodide 10.
