One step (Method-A; top) and multi-step (Method-B, bottom) procedures to transform cyclic amide (lactam) with various ring sizes to amino ester (for the corresponding carbonylicity values computed at B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory; see Table 1). The carbonylicity values for 19 and 20 are average values.
