β-Lactams from Ester Enolates and Metalloimines: Synthesis and Reactivity oftert-Butyldimethylsilylimines

Abstract
A new synthesis of N-tert-butyldimethylsilylimines from aldehydes is reported. Reaction of these reagents, prepared in situ, with lithium ester enolates affords in a one-pot procedure azetidinones protected as N-silyl derivatives.
