A practical synthesis of 4-acetoxy-2-azetidinone useful for the preparation of carbapenem- and penem-type antibiotics is described. The synthesis has advantages such as avoiding the tedious and costly column chromatographic or recrystallized separation steps for diastereomers. The overall yield of the product is greatly improved and the process is also more economical for large-scale production. In addition, the mechanism for oxidative decarboxylation is also present.
