Stereoselective synthesis of new beta-lactams by cyclocondensation of 1-methoxy-3-(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadiene with 4-formyl substituted azetidinones

Farmaco. 1998 Oct-Nov;53(10-11):629-33. doi: 10.1016/s0014-827x(98)00077-9.

Abstract

The BF3.OEt2 or LiClO4 catalyzed hetero Diels-Alder reaction of 1-methoxy-3-(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadiene (Danishefsky's diene) with enantiomerically pure 4-formylazetidin-2-ones affords the corresponding cycloadducts in fair to good yields and in diastereoisomeric ratios of up to 98:2.
