C. Belzecki et M. Chmielewski, C(4)-C(5) pyranoid ring opening in 2-C : 1-N-carbonyl-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosylamine, POL J CHEM, 74(9), 2000, pp. 1243-1248
2-C: 1 -N-Carbonyl-2-deoxy-3,4,6-tris-O-trimethylsilyl-alpha-D-glucopyranos
ylamine 1 was subjected to the reaction sequence leading to the introductio
n of the C(4)-C(5) double bond into the pyranoid ring. Ozonolysis of the C(
4)-C(5) double bond in the sugar 14 cleaved the six-membered ring to afford
4-acyloxy azetidinone 15 suitable for further carbapenem and carbacephem s
yntheses.
