Abstract

Disclosed herein is a novel process using novel silyl enol ether intermediates of the formula ##STR1## to generate novel azetidione thiolester intermediates of the formula ##STR2## which can be used to form 1-.beta.-alkyl carbapenem antibiotics. It has now been discovered that if the R.sup.4 group is selected from a small group of moieties having the formula: ##STR3## an increased .beta.-yield of up to approximately 100% can be obtained.
