title: Palladium-Catalyzed Intramolecular Insertion of Alkenes into the Carbon-Nitrogen Bond of β-Lactams.
abstract: The carbon-nitrogen bond of β-lactams is cleaved by palladium(0), and an alkene is intramolecularly inserted therein. The following reductive elimination produces nitrogen-containing benzo-fused tricycles in good to high yields.
