摘要: A new synthetic route to N-alkyl-2-acylazetidines was developed through a highly stereoselective addition of organolithiums N-alkyl-2‐oxazolinylazetidines followed by acidic hydrolysis the resulting oxazolidine intermediates. This study revealed an unusual reactivity C=N bond oxazoline group when reacted with in non-polar solvent such as toluene. The observed has been explained considering role nitrogen lone pair azetidine ring well oxazolinyl promoting complexation organolithium, thus ending up double bond. high level stereoselectivity this is supported DFT calculations and NMR investigations, model proposed for formation intermediates, that have isolated fully characterized. Upon conditions, moieties were readily converted into 2-acylazetidines. approach applied preparation enantioenriched 2-acylazetidines starting from chiral not racemic N‐alkyl-2‐oxazolinylazetidines.
