Synthesis of 1β-Methylcarbapenem Antibiotic Precursors by Cyclization Using π-Allylpalladium Complexes

An efficient diastereoselective multi-step synthesis of bicyclic 1β-methylcarbapenem antibiotic precursors has been developed, starting from the commercially available 4-acetoxyazetidin-2-one 4. Chiral ruthenium catalysts are used in the hydrogenation step to control the β-stereochemistry at the 1-position, and a π-allylpalladium ring-closure strategy is used to form the functionalized carbapenem skeleton.
