Aziridinyl enones can be converted in good yield into pi-allyltricarbo
nyliron lactam complexes bearing ketone functionality in the side chai
n; addition of a variety of nucleophiles into the side chains of these
complexes proceeds in good yield and excellent (> 95%) de to afford s
econdary and tertiary alcohols which on treatment with trimethylamine
N-oxide form the corresponding beta-lactams in good yield.
