Significance
The synthesis of phosphono-β-lactams starting from combination of imines with α-chloroacetyl chloride is reported. The initially formed N-acetylated imminium salts, upon treatment with trialkyl phosphites, undergo a Michaelis-Arbuzov-type reaction to afford adducts which, upon cyclization under NaH conditions, furnish the 4-phosphono-β-lactams in good to excellent yields.
