Abstract

Reactions of 1-halo-1-nitroso-and 1-halo-1-nitrocycloalkanes with triphenylphosphine have been carried out. The Perkov reaction and Beckmann rearrangement occurred successively with the formation of lactams in high yields. The reaction of cycloalkanone oxime with halogen in the presence of triphenylphosphine also gave lactams in one step.
