Abstract
A chiral key intermediate (19a) for the synthesis of (+)-thienamycin was synthesized starting from D-glucose. The enol ether 13, obtained from the ketone 11 by Horner-Wittig reaction, was transformed to the corresponding methyl ester 16 by pyridinium chlorochromate oxidation or by employing the Wacker process. The ester 16 was further converted to the β-lactam 19a, which is a useful chiral precursor to (+)-thienamycin.
