Popis: The N-arylsulfonyl group, which is the best and most useful cyclization auxiliary for the transition-metal-catalyzed atom transfer radical cyclization (ATRC) of N-allyl-α-polychloroamides, can be effectively removed from the target γ-lactams by using H2SO4–HOAc, without impairing the halogen functions. The reaction involves H+ attack on the aromatic moiety, and is strongly responsive to the electronic properties of the substituent bound to the aromatic ring: electron-donating groups, such as methyl or methoxy are, in fact, required for efficient “deprotection”. The N-p-nitrophenylsulfonyl cyclization auxiliary, in contrast to all the other sulfonyl groups tested, proved to be unsuitable for the ATRC, owing to a side reductive transposition that halts the redox cycle.
