Studies on the reactivity of azetidin-2-ones in phosphate buffer

1H NMR (500 MHz) analyses reveal that in phosphate buffer, N-arylsulfonyl β-lactams such as ethyl N-(p-nitrophenylsulfonyl)-2-oxoazetidine-4-carboxylate and (4S)-ethyl 3-ethyl-N-(p-nitrophenylsulfonyl)-2-oxoazetidine-4-carboxylate undergo hydrolysis through (minimally) two mechanisms: via direct hyd...

Crynodeb:1H NMR (500 MHz) analyses reveal that in phosphate buffer, N-arylsulfonyl β-lactams such as ethyl N-(p-nitrophenylsulfonyl)-2-oxoazetidine-4-carboxylate and (4S)-ethyl 3-ethyl-N-(p-nitrophenylsulfonyl)-2-oxoazetidine-4-carboxylate undergo hydrolysis through (minimally) two mechanisms: via direct hydrolysis and via an unstable acyl phosphate intermediate. The acyl phosphate intermediates can be trapped using hydrazine.
