Method for manufacturing stereoselective preparation of 4-bma using a chiral auxiliary and chiral auxiliary

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for preparing (3R,4S)-3- [[[R]-1 ' -t-butyldimethylsilyloxy ]ethyl]-4-[(R)-1 "-carboxyethyl]-2-azetidinone (beta- methylazetidin-2-one; 4-BMA), a key intermediate for the synthesis of carbapenem and penem antibiotics. Specifically, the present invention relates to a process comprising first, the preparation of a chiral auxiliary from cheap L-Phenylalaninol, and then the preparation of 4-BMA in high yield and high selectivity, under industrially mild condition.
