A highly efficient synthesis of (3R,4R)-4-acetoxy-3-[(R)-1-hydroxyethyl]-2-azetidinone, which is a key intermediate for the synthesis of carbapenem and penem antibiotics, was accomplished. It was found that oxymercuration-reduction of easily obtainable 4-alkyloxycarbonyl-1-(di-p-anisylmethyl)-3-ethenyl-2-azetidinone could be employed as a key stereoselective reaction. The chiral starting material was obtained by optical resolution or asymmetric (2 + 2) cycloaddition. The desired product was afforded in four steps, that is, oxymercuration-reduction, oxidative decarboxylation, protection of the hydroxy group and removal of the N-protecting group.

Novel β-lactam compounds classified into penem compounds, a process for preparing the same and use of such β-lactam compounds are disclosed. These β-lactam compounds exhibit excellent antimicrobial activities useful as pharmaceuticals or they are important intermediates for the synthesis of compounds having antimicrobial activities.
