Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of β-lactam 59 (60 mg, 0.22 mmol), Pyridin-2-boronic acid (81 mg, 0.66 mmol), copper acetate (120 mg, 0.66 mmol), triethylamine (0.153 mL, 1.1 mmol) and activated 4A molecular sieves (270 mg) in dichloromethane (5 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 2 days. The reaction mixture was filtered through celite and the filtrate was concentrated. Preparative TLC (20% EtOAc/Hexanes) of the residue gave the desired product 80 (19.2 mg, 24.8%) 1HNMR (300 MHz, CDCl3): 2.60 (m, 2H), 3.49 (m, 1H), 3.81 (s, 3H), 4.41 (d, J=2.61 Hz, 1H), 5.11-5.21 (m, 4H), 5.82 (m, 1H), 6.85 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 2H), 7.01 (m, 1H), 7.22 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 7.66-7.72 (m, 2H); 8.19 (d, J=4.7 Hz, 1H) Anal. C20H20N2O4, Mol. Wt.: 352.38. Found: ESI-MS: 352.9 (M+H)+.
