The microwave-enhanced Wolff rearrangement of amino acid derived diazo ketones 104, with capture of the derived ketenes 105 by imines 106, provides a route to the β-lactams 107A and 107B (Scheme 33).[90] The diastereomeric ratios of the product are 2:1 for R1 = Me and 9:1 for R1 = t-Bu. Microwaves also enhance the Wolff rearrangement of other ketene precursors, such as 1-diazotridecan-2-one.[91] The electric field from microwave irradiation may affect the conformational preference of the diazo ketones and thereby enhance the efficiency of the Wolff rearrangement.[91]
