✦ Synopsis
The enolate-imine condensation of the lithio dianion 8 of ethyl 3-hydroxybutyrate 7 with Nanisylcinnamylideneimine was studied in the presence of a variety of metal salts and organometallic reagents. Addition of terr-butyl magnesium chloride to the reaction mixture produced the reZ(l'R,3R,4S)-3-(l'-#mxyethyl)-2-azettdmone 9, whereas the addition of triethylborane gave solely the rel(l'R,3R,4R) derivative 3-(l'-Hydroxyethyl)-2-azetidinones of type 1, possessing the depicted absolute stereochemistry at the three contiguous chiral centers, are important building blocks for the asymmetric synthesis of potent P-lactam antibiotics' such as derivatives of thienamycin 2 and 1-g-methylthienamycin 3, the olivanic acids, the penems.

Addition of dianions of 3-hydroxybutyrates to benzylideneaniline results in direct formation of trans S\*-3-(1-hydroxyethyl)-1,4-diphenyl-2-azetidinone with 95% diastereoselectivity. Inversion of theconfiguration at C, gives the desired trans R\*-2-azetidinone in high yield. --
A stereoselective synthesis of (1 0 S,3R,4R)-4-acetoxy-3-(2 0 -fluoro-1 0 -trimethylsilyloxyethyl)-2-azetidinone as a new fluorine-containing intermediate towards b-lactams, is described. The synthetic key step relies upon the dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of ethyl 2-benzamidomethyl-4-fluoro-3-ox
