m-Chloroperbenzoic acid → HCID 17992736, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 46 mg (0.127 mmole) azetidinone from Step B in 4 ml CH2Cl2 and 4 ml saturated aqueous NaHCO3 was added 27 mg (0.127 mM) 80% m-chloroperbenzoic acid and the reaction mixture stirred vigorously 15 minutes. The phases were separated and the organic phase was dried over MgSO4, filtered and stripped to yield 57 mg crude product which was chromatographed on a 1000μ silica gel prep TLC plate in chloroform-ethyl acetate 4:1 to yield 15 mg (31%) of 1-acetoxymethyl-4-p-nitrophenylsulfinyl-3-n-propylazetidin-2-one.
