Abstract
A diastereoselective synthesis of (+/-) cis-beta-lactams (5 & 6) via c ycloaddition reactions of N1-(alpha-thiophenyl)benzyl imines (3) with acid chlorides (4) in the presence of triethylamine is described. The deprotection of N1-(alpha-thiophenyl)benzyl group has been achieved by oxidation using potassium persulfate to give N-unsubstituted beta-lac tams (7) in good yields.
