Stereoselective synthesis of 3-alkylidene/alkylazetidin-2-ones from azetidin-2,3-diones
摘要:
Azetidin-2,3-diones have been used as synthons for the synthesis of C-3 alkylidene/alkylazetidin-2-ones. Some of the 3-alkylazetidin-2-ones are well known for their cholesterol absorption inhibitor activity. A regio and stereoselective Grignard reaction on a keto group followed by dehydration using PPh3/CCl4 reagent is a key step in this synthesis. Hydrogenation of the 3-alkylideneazetidin-2-ones provided stereoselectively cis-3-alkylazetidin-2-ones in very good yields. (c) 2006 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
