Abstract
The synthesis of beta-lactams vinylated at C-4 from N-(3-phenylthio-1- alkenyl)amides was carried out by Mn(III)-promoted 4-exo-trig radical cyclization followed by beta-fragmentative loss of phenylthiyl radical . The effects on the reaction course of different substituents both on enamidic nitrogen atom or double bond were analyzed. The overall reac tion was stereoselective, leading to trans azetidinones.
