Procedure

1-(1-Acetoxy-2-methylpropyl)-3-(2-phenylacetamido)-2-azetidinone (13.8 g.) was dissolved in a solution of methanol (100 ml.) and water (100 ml.). Potassium carbonate (6 g.) and sodium borohydride (1.65 g.) were added to said solution under ice-cooling, and the mixture was subjected to reaction at 20° C. for an hour. The precipitated crystals were collected by filtration, washed with water and dried to give 3-(2-phenylacetamido)-2-azetidinone (5.15 g.). Furthermore, the same compound (1.35 g.) was recovered from the filtrate. Total yield was 6.5 g. Mp 191° to 193° C.
