Deketalization of the trans compounds methyl and ethyl (2RS,3RS)-1-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-3-(2-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)-4-oxoazetidine-2-carboxylates 5b and 5c, and of the cis isomer (6b) of the latter leads to 85:15 mixtures of the trans- and cis-compounds methyl (2RS,3RS)- and (2RS,3SR)-3-acetyl-1-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-4-oxoazetidine-2-carboxylate (7a) and (8a), respectively of the corresponding ethyl esters (7b) and (8b).Sodium borohydride reduction of the mixture of the trans- and cis-esters (7b) and (8b) gives a mixture of the 1'-epimeric trans-compounds ethyl(2RS,3RS)-1-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-3--4-oxazetidine-2-carboxylate (9b) and (10b).Similar mixtures of 1'-epimeric compounds of the types (9) and (10), carrying a variety of substituents attached to position 2 of their azetidine rings were obtained by successive deketalization and reduction of the corresponding trans-(5) and cis-(6) compounds or their mixtures, as well as by other methods.Ring closure of a mixture of the pair of the 1'-epimeric trans-compounds p-nitrobenzyl 2-diazo-4--4-oxo-azetidin-2-yl>-3-oxobutanoates (9n) and (10n) gave a mixture of the 1'-epimeric compounds p-nitrobenzyl 6--2,7-dioxo-(3RS,5RS,6SR)-carbapenam-3-carboxylates (11) and (12) which was converted into a mixture (13) of the 1'-epimeric bis-protected thienamycin analogues p-nitrobenzyl 2-(2-formylaminoethylthio)-6--7-oxo-(5RS,6SR)-carbapen-2-em-3-carboxylates.
