Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A solution of sodium thioacetate, prepared by treating a solution of thioacetic acid (3.24 g) in dioxane (8 ml) and water (21.5 ml) with 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide, was added to a solution of 3-(1-p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyloxyethyl)-4-acetoxy-2-azetidinone (15.0 g) in dioxane (56 ml) at 0° to 10° C. under nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 15 minutes, diluted with ice-cooled dichloromethane, washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated to give an oily residue which was then purified by silica gel chromatography to give 3-(1-p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyloxyethyl)-4-acetylthio-2-azetidinone.
