N ‐(2,3‐Dibromopropyl)‐ and N ‐(3,4‐dibromobutyl)(methoxycarbonyl)methanesulfanilides upon treatment with potassium carbonate in DMF furnish methyl 3‐aryl‐2,2‐dioxo‐2‐thia‐3‐azabicyclo[ n .1.0]alkane‐1‐carboxylates in yields ranging from 54 to 84 % (10 examples). The starting materials were obtained by sulfonylation of N ‐alkenylanilines with methyl (chlorosulfonyl)acetate and subsequent bromination. For the N ‐alkenylanilines (10 examples, 60–77 % yield) an efficient new synthesis employing a 2‐nitrophenylsulfonyl substituent as a protective as well as an activating group has been developed. The 4‐methoxyphenyl (PMP) group could easily be removed from the sultam nitrogen atom by treatment with cerium(IV) ammonium nitrate.(© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2009)
