Abstract
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Several N-phenacyl enaminones, prepared by Eschenmoser sulfide contraction between Nphenacylpyrrolidine-2-thiones and a range of substituted phenacyl halides, were transformed into 2,3-
dihydro-1H-pyrrolizines when treated with acetic acid or silica gel. Yields of the bicyclic products were in the
range 57–100% depending on the route followed. Some further reactions of the newly formed pyrrole rings
are also reported.
