Tributyltin hydride (0.707 ml) was added to a mixture of methyl 2-[(3R,4R)-3-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-3-isocyano-2-oxo-4-allylazetidin-1-yl]-3-methylbut-2-enoate (630 mg) and azobisisobutyronitrile (34 mg) in benzene (6 ml) at room temperature, and the mixture was refluxed for 15 minutes. The reaction mixture was cooled and chromatographed on silica gel (20 g) eluting with a mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate (3:1-1:1) to give a 3:1 mixture (559 mg) of methyl 2-[(3S,4R)-3-(1-hydroxy-1-methylethyl)-2-oxo-4-allylazetidin-1-yl]-3-methylbut-2-enoate and its (3R,4R)-isomer.
