Approaches to the biomimetic synthesis of β-lactam antibiotics

The C4 benzoyloxy substituted β-lactams (65)-(68) were formed by the copper-promoted reaction of β-lactarns (42)-(45) with t-butyl perbenzoate. The benzoyloxylation of the azetidin-2-one ring occurs at C4 with no competing reaction at the C3 position. The relative ease of abstraction by t-butoxy ra...
