    An unprecedented dyotropic rearrangement of β-lactams has been developed, which provides an enabling tool for the synthesis of structurally diverse γ-butyrolactams. Unlike the well-established dyotropic rearrangements of β-lactones, the present reaction probably proceeds through a dual-activation mode, and thus displays unusual reactivity and chemoselectivity. The combined computational and experimental results suggest that the dyotropic rearrangement of β-lactams may proceed through different mechanisms depending on the nature of migrating groups (H, alkyl, or aryl). Hinging on a chemoselective H-migration dyotropic rearrangement of β-lactams, we have completed the divergent synthesis of tricyclic marine alkaloids (-)-lepadiformine A, (+)-cylindricine C, and (-)-fasicularin within 11-12 longest linear steps. © 2024 Wiley-VCH GmbH.
