Molecular structure of 5, including its absolute configuration, was unambiguously determined by X-ray structure analysis. Cleavage of the benzyl ester group using AlCl3 / anisole as well as H2Pd/C procedures failed. Instead, new methods for the removal of the substituent from the azetidinone nitrogen of compounds 5 and 7 were found. Azetidinone 8 was isolated in the reaction of azetidinone-oxiranes 5 with AlCl3/anisole. During hydrogenation of azetidinone-oxirane 5, afforded azetidinone p-hydroxy acid sodium salt 9, which was transformed into azetidinone 8 in acidic media. Compounds 5 and 7 gave the azetidinone-halohydrines 10 and 11 by the oxirane ring opening with HCl %K azetidinone-N-butenoat %K azetidinone-oxirane %K azetidinone ¦Â-hydroxy acid %K azetidinone-halohydrine %K synthesis %K X-ray structure analysis %K antibacterial activity %U https://hrcak.srce.hr/index.php?show=clanak&id_clanak_jezik=188259
