Described here is the first organocatalytic asymmetric N−H insertion reaction of α-carbonyl sulfoxonium ylides. Without a metal catalyst, this reaction represents an attractive complement to the well-established carbene insertion reactions....


A versatile stereocontrolled total synthesis of thienamycin starting from L-aspartic acid is reported. Stereocontrol is achieved by potassium tri- sec -butylborohydride reduction of a thermodynamically formed 3α-acetylazetidinone intermediate. The key [3.2.0] bicyclic ring system is prepared by a metal catalyzed carbene insertion reaction.
