✦ Synopsis
Osmium-catalyzed oxidation of klactams with peroxides in acetic acid gives the corresponding 4-acetoxy B-lactams, which are versatile synthetic intermediate of carbapenem antibiotics, in good to excellent yields.
Oxidation of p-lactams is of importance in view of synthesis of carbapenem and thiopenem antibiotics.1 We wish to report that osmium-catalyzed oxidation of p-lactams with peroxides gives 4acetoxy P_lactams highly efficiently (eq. 1). This is the first example of tbe osmium-catalyzed oxidation of C-H bonds, although some osmium-catalyzed reactions have been n~ported.~
