Acetone → methyl 2-[(3S,4R)-3-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-2-oxo-4-allylazetidin-1-yl]-3-methylbut-2-enoate

Temperature

-70 °C

1.55M Butyl lithium-hexane solution (2.82 ml) was added to a solution of N-isopropylcyclohexylamino (0.72 ml) in tetrahydrofuran (6 ml) at -70° C., and the mixture was stirred for 20 minutes at -70° C. This mixture was added to a solution of methyl 3-methyl-2-[(4R)-2-oxo-4-allylazetidin-1-yl]but-2-enoate (247 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (6 ml) at -70° C. and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour at -70° C., and for 30 minutes at -30° C. Acetone (0.12 ml) was added to the reaction mixture at -70° C., and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour at -70° C. and for 30 minutes at -30° C.--15° C. 3N Hydrochloric acid was added to the reaction mixture at -70° C. and the mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (200 ml). The solution was washed with water, brine, aqueous sodium bicarbonate and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo. Triethylamine (0.15 ml) was added to a solution of the residue in dichloromethane (3 ml) at 0° C. and the mixture was stirred overnight at ambient temperature. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (20 ml) and the solution was washed with 0.1N hydrochloric acid (15 ml) brine, aqueous sodium bicarbonate and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed on silica gel (10 g) eluting with a mixture of benzene and acetone (10:1-2:1) to give methyl 3-methyl-2-[(3S,4R)-3-(1hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-2-oxo-4-allylazetidin-1-yl]but-2-enoate (100 mg);
