1,1-Dimethylethyl N-[(3S)-2,2-dimethyl-4-oxo-1-(phenylmethoxy)-3-azetidinyl]carbamate → HCID 14010104, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of 14.77 g (0.0461 mole) of (3S)-3-[(t-butyloxycarbonyl)amino]-4,4-dimethyl-1-(phenylmethoxy)-2-azetidinone in 15 ml of ethanol and 85 ml of ethyl acetate was hydrogenated over 0.75 g of 5% palladium-on-carbon catalyst for 1.5 hours at 1 atmosphere. The reaction mixture was filtered and concentrated to give a white solid. Recrystallization from ethyl acetate gave 8.82 g of the title compound, melting point 148°-149° C., [α]D =+31° (C =1, ethyl acetate).
