24. The corresponding decarboxymethylation compound (1,4-dike- tone 18 a, not shown) was also observed as a side product in this reaction. The likely formation of imine moieties at the two carbonyl sites of substrate 18 is reversible under the reaction conditions (i.e. H2O), thus allowing the eventual generation of the product (i.e. 1b). An alternative mechanism may involve initial attack of NH3 at the C2' carbonyl group and subsequent ring closure.
