Aziridines as templates: A general strategy for the stereospecific synthesis of 2-azetidinones

Various routes to a variety of azridine-2-carboxylates have been described and the stereochemistry of these compounds has been determined by spectroscopic methods. Further, greater diversity of β-lactams via ring expansion of these azridines-2-carboxylates were obtained by a general, efficient and direct stereospecific approach.

Carbonylation of silylated hydroxymethyl aziridines to β-lactams

Functionalized β-lactams are synthesized by carbonylative ring expansion of silylated hydroxymethyl aziridines catalyzed by dicobalt octacarbonyl, a process that proceeds with inversion of configuration. Ring opening and elimination occurs on attempted carbonylation of aziridine carboxylates.

Perfluorohexane as a novel reaction medium for bromination reactions

Perfluorohexane is shown to be a good alternative to carbon tetrachloride as a non-toxic, non-ozone-depleting, inert reaction medium for bromination reactions. Yields of brominated products were nearly quantitative and the reaction work-up was easier.
