Abstract
The tricyclic beta-lactam 5 has been synthesized both in racemic and enanti opure form starting from the enantiomerically pure tricarbonylchromium(0) c omplex 1. The synthetic sequence involves the stereoselective [2+2] cycload dition of 1 with acetoxyacetylketene, followed by intramolecular aromatic n ucleophilic substitution of the fluorine atom. Mechanistic pathways leading to 5 are discussed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
