Abstract

Rhodium(III) porphyrin complexes [Rh(Por)Me] are catalytically active towards stereoselective intramolecular carbene C–H insertions of α-diazoacetamides to give cis-β-lactams or trans-γ-lactams in yields up to 99% with regioselectivities up to 100% and cis/trans ratios up to 83:17 for β-lactams.

Key words

rhodium porphyrin - carbene C–H insertion - stereoselectivity - intramolecular cyclization - lactams

12 General Procedure Diazo ester 1 (0.1 mmol) dissolved in toluene (5 mL) was added to a toluene solution (5 mL) containing [Rh(Por)Me] (1 mol%) under an N₂ atmosphere. The reaction mixture was refluxed until 1 was completely consumed. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography using EtOAc–hexane as the eluent to obtain the desired products.
