Abstract
The reaction of dimethylketene methyl trimethylsilyl acetal with the Schiff bases of chiral α-amino esters in the presence of titanium tetrachloride gave the corresponding β-lactams with extremely high stereoselectivity (up to > 99% diastereomeric purity). Possible mechanism for the highly effective asymmetric induction using “titanium template” is proposed.
