A novel and practical process for the completely stereoselective synthesis of carbapenem key intermediate (3R,4R)-4-acetoxy-3-[(R)-1-((t- butyldimethylsilyl)oxy)ethyl]-2-azetidinone has been developed by starting from methyl 6,6-dibromopenicillanate. Aldol condensation of the magnesium enolate derived from the-sulfoxide with acetaldehyde allows for the stereospecific introduction of a 1-R-hydroxyethyl substituent as C-6. The hydroxyethylated product was reduced with Zn-NH4OAc in tetrahydrofuran (THF) efficiently to give methyl 6-(1-hydroxyethyl)-penicillanate-1-oxide. Protection of the hydroxy group followed by treatment with 2-mercaptobenzothiazole afforded the dithioazetidinone, which was easily reduced and methylated to give 4-methylthioazetidinone. Then this compound was oxidized with permanganate to selectively remove the side chain at the N-position to afford the 4-methylthioazetidinone derivative. A facile conversion of the methylthio group to acetoxy for a practical synthesis of 4-acetoxyazetidinone was also reported. This method provided an efficient and cost-effective process with good overall yield and excellent stereoselectivity.

Allyl and p-nitrobenzyl (5R,6S)-6-((R)-1-(t-butyldimethylsilyloxy)ethyl)-2-thioxopenam-3-carboxylates (19) were synthesized by base mediated cyclization of the corresponding 1-carboxylmethyl-4-phenoxy(thiocarbonyl)thio-2-azetidinones (16).The thioxopenams underwent alkylation and Michael reactions to produce 2-alkylthio- and 2-alkenylthio-penem derivatives 20 and 21.
