Abstract

A concise protocol for the synthesis of α-methylene-β-hydroxy- γ-carboxy-γ-lactams has been described via alkylation of amino acid derived iminoesters with α-bromomethylmethacrylate, followed by allylic hydroxylation. All the synthesized compounds have been evaluated for their cytotoxicity on multiple myeloma cancer cell lines.
