Abstract

A 1β-methylcarboxylate (1) which is a requisite intermediate for the synthesis of the 1β-methylcarbapenem was obtained in an efficient manner by the coupling reaction of a Z(O)-pyridylthiosilyl enol ether and a 4-acetoxyazetidinone derivative in the presence of ZnCl2 in CH2Cl2. The reactive silyl enol ether was prepared by the reverse addition method in high yield.
