A new family of β-lactams containing the ferrocene moiety has been synthesized in moderate to excellent yields by a one-pot reaction of ferrocenyl acetic acid and achiral or chiral imines with both the conventional thermal methods and the more rapid microwave irradiation technique. The stereochemical outcome of the reaction is also discussed.
