A Facile Approach to Benzosultam‐fused 4‐Imidazolidinone Derivatives from N‐Sulfonyl Ketimine and α‐Halogenated Hydroxamates

Abstract The novel benzosultam‐fused 4‐imidazolidinone scaffold was constructed by a concise [3+2] annulation reaction of α‐halogenated hydroxamates and N‐sulfonyl ketimine for the first time. The transformation proceeded smoothly under mild and transition‐metal‐free conditions in moderate to excellent yields (up to 95 %). Moreover the annulation products are potentially useful and promising for medicinal research.
