SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL CHIRAL BISAZETIDINES BY THE HYDROALANE REDUCTION OF BIS-BETA-LACTAMS

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(00)94772-5

A series of novel chiral bisazetidines in which two azetidine rings are either directly connected or coupled in tandem style, are synthesized in good yields by the hydroalane reduction of the corresponding bis-beta-lactams.
