Azetidon

It serves as a key building block for introducing the required stereochemistry in pharmaceutical manufacturing. High-purity Azetidon intermediates are essential for efficient synthesis and consistent product quality in antibiotic production. Azetidon is a chiral β-lactam (azetidin-2-one) intermediate widely employed to synthesize carbapenem and other β-lactam antibiotics.
