37. 2/α-phenylethylamine complex as catalyst, using benzene as solvent and a Dean-Stark apparatus to remove the water formed during the reaction. Alternatively, N-alkylimines required in our work were smoothly prepared by the condensation of the appropriate aldehyde with the corresponding amine in dichloromethane at room temperature in the presence of anhydrous magnesium sulphate. A nearly quantitative yield of the Schiff base was obtained in all cases under these reaction conditions.
38. The assignment of relative stereochemistry was determined by the observed coupling constant for methine protons H3 and H4, which is a very well established criterium in β-lactam chemistry.
