The preparation of the β-lactam motif containing both C-Br and N-O bonds as functional handles remains an unmet synthetic challenge. Described herein is a novel and highly diastereoselective NBS-mediated cyclization of <i>N-</i>alkoxy α,β-unsaturated silyl imino ethers to furnish nearly three dozen α-bromo <i>N</i>-alkoxy β-lactams. The reaction gives rapid and convenient access to structurally diverse monocyclic, spirocyclic and fused β-lactams in moderate to good yields. The two functional han ...[more]
