32. Procedure for catalyst recycling: SKTA 1 was reacted with imine 7 as described in note [10]. After 48 h 0.085 g of SKTA 1 and 0.124 g of imine 7 were added to the aqueous phase and a second reaction allowed to proceed for 48 h. After three further iterations of this procedure (for a total five reaction cycles) amide 9 was isolated after silica gel chromatography in 31% yield along with 10% β-lactams 8c and 8t as described above.
