The reactions of N-acyl-pyrrolidines (1a-c) and -piperidines (1d-f) with Fe(II)-hydrogen peroxide in aqueous 95percent acetonitrile gave the corresponding pyrrolidin-2-ones (2a-c) and piperidin-2-ones (2d-f).The lactams (2a-f) were also the products in the oxidation of (1a-f) with molecular oxygen in the presence of an iron complex, either or , in aqueous 90percent pyridine.
