An efficient method for the construction of polysubstituted 4-pyridones via self-condensation of β-keto amides mediated by P2O5 and catalyzed by zinc bromide

A self-condensation cyclization reaction mediated by phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) and catalyzed by zinc bromide (ZnBr2) is presented for the synthesis of polysubstituted 4-pyridones and 2-pyridones from β-keto amides. A variety of β-keto amides are used in this approach, and a wide range of functiona...
