Part of the book series: Topics in Heterocyclic Chemistry ((TOPICS,volume 22))

Abstract

The main strategies for the ring opening of β-lactams by chemical means are described. The discovery of each approach is put into context, sometimes in connection to processes occurring in biological systems, and the synthetic opportunities each approach offers are shown. Thus, this β-lactam route affords a number of synthetically relevant building-blocks, including α-amino acids, β-amino acids, their derived peptides, and other nitrogen containing heterocycles and open chain molecules. The content, which encompases references to initial work, further major development, and the most relevant recent literature contributions, is categorized according to the ring bond cleavaged (N 1C 2, C 2C 3, C 3 –C 4 , N 1C 4), to finish with ring opening strategies leading to large heterocyclic compounds. Within each category, distinction has been made according to the type of nucleophilic agent employed, principally O-, N-, and C-nucleophiles. Also, a variety of applications of the strategy to the synthesis of interesting target compounds are shown.
