example 2

[0109]

[0110]To a solution of compound A from Example 1 (0.5 g, 1.3 mmol) in anhydrous pyridine (2.7 ml), add acetic anhydride (0.63 ml, 6.7 mmol). Stir for 16 h, dilute with CH2Cl2 and wash 3× with 1N HCl 1× with NaCl (sat'd) and 1× with water. Concentrate the organic layer to dryness and crystallize the residue from EtOAc to obtain the title compound (0.46 g), mp 167°-169° C.; IR 1745 cm-1; EI (M+) 415; J=5.9 Hz.

example 3

[0111]

[0112]Freshly prepare a solution of lithium isopropylcyclohexylamide (LICA) by adding n-butyllithium (2.84 mL of a 1.6M solution) to 5 a solution of isopropylcyclohexylamine (0.75 mL) in THF (100 mL) at −78° C. Dissolve N-phenyl-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-azetidinone (1.0 g) in THF (8 mL) and slowly add to the LICA solution at −78° C. After stirring for 20 min, add hydrocinnamaldehyde (0.54 g) and stir the reaction mixture at −78° C. for 4 h. Quench the reaction with 10% KHSO4 and extract the product with EtOAc. Separate the organic layer, wash with water and NaCl (sat'd). Concentrate the extract and purify the resultant residue on a silica gel 60 column, eluting with EtOAc:hexane (15:85) to obtain 1.15 g of product as a mixture of diastereomers. Separate the diastereomers by HPLC on a silica gel column to give three diastereomers 3A, 3B and 3C:

[0129]

Method 1:

[0130]Step 1) To a refluxing solution of of 4-methoxyberizylidene anisidine (10.0 g, 41.5 mmol) and tributylamine (20.8 ml. 87 mmol) in toluene (100 ml), add 5-bromovaleroyl chloride (8.5 g, 43, mmol) in toluene (20 ml) dropwise over 2 h. Stir the reaction mixture at 80° C. for 12 h, cool to room temperature, wash 3× with 1 N HCl, 1× with water and dry the organic layer over MgSO4. Purify by silica gel chromatography, eluting with ethyl acetate:hexane (4:1) to obtain 5.1 g of (3R, 4S)-1,4-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-(3-bromoproyl)-2-azetidinone (relative stereochemistry), mp 70°-73° C., E1 (M+) 404; J=2.3 Hz.

[0131]Step 2) To a solution of the product of step 1 (5.1 g, 12.6 mmol) in (CH3)2SO (20 ml), add (CH3)3N(O) (2.39 g, 31.9 mmol). Heat the mixture at 60° C. for 3 h, cool to room temperature, dilute with EtOAc, and wash 3× with water. Combine the aqueous fractions and extract with EtOAc. Combine the organic fractions and concentrate. Purify the crude product by silica g...
