Chiral piperazine and 1,4-diazepane annulated beta-lactams, prepared from the corresponding (3R,4S)-4-imidoyl-1-(omega-haloalkyl)azetidin-2-ones through reduction with sodium borohydride in ethanol, were transformed into novel methyl (R)-alkoxy-[(S)-piperazin-2-yl]acetates and methyl (R)-alkoxy-[(S)-1,4-diazepan-2-yl]acetates upon treatment with hydrogen chloride in methanol. On the other hand, bromination of (3R,4R)-1-allyl-4-formyl-beta-lactams and (3R,4S)-1-allyl-4-imidoyl-beta-lactams in dichloromethane, followed by sodium borohydride reduction of the resulting dibrominated azetidin-2-ones in ethanol, did not afford the envisaged bicyclic beta-lactams but unexpectedly furnished (3R,4S)-1-(2-bromo-2-propenyl)azetidin-2-ones instead.
