ChemInform Abstract
Secondary haloamides are demonstrated to undergo free radical cyclization reactions in boiling toluene. Bulky N-protection groups, established for related cyclizations, are not required. Diastereoselectivity and efficiency of these reactions are found to depend on nature and position of the C-chain substituents.
