Abstract
A convenient method for synthesis of optically active azetidin-2-ones using electrochemical oxidation has been exploited. The method consists of a diastereoselective intramolecular C–C bond forming reaction between active methylene and methyne groups through an electrochemical system in which positive iodine species acted as mediators under mild conditions.
