This paper explores a five-lemma situation in the context of a free product of a family of groups with amalgamated subgroups (that is, a colimit of an appropriate diagram in the category of groups). In particular, for two families {Aα}, {Bα} of groups with amalgamated subgroups {Aαβ}, {Bαβ} and free products A, B we assume the existence of homomorphisms Aα → Bα whose restrictions Aαβ → Bαβ are isomorphisms and which induce an isomorphism A → B between the products. We show that the usual five-lemma conclusion is false, in that the morphisms Aα → Bα are in general neither monic nor epic. However, if all Bα → B are monic, Aα → Bα is always epic; and if Aα → A is monic, for all α, then Aα → Bα is an isomorphism.

The free product A* B of groups A and B can be described in two ways.We can construct the set of reduced words in A and B. Define a binary operation on by concatenating two words and performing as many reductions as possible. Prove that is a group; the difficult step is the proof of associativity. Define A * B = .

We define a certain class of groups, Ck, which we show to contain the class of all k-free groups. Our main theorem shows that certain amalgamated free products of groups in C3, are again in C3. In the appendix we show that many 3-manifold groups belong to Ck for suitable k.
