title: Stereocontrolled synthesis of substituted N-arenesulfonyl azetidines from gamma-(phenylseleno)alkyl arylsulfonamides.
abstract: Different synthetic methodologies for the stereocontrolled synthesis of substituted azetidines are reported. The approach utilizes an optimized oxidation reaction of gamma-(phenylseleno)alkyl arylsulfonamides, followed by the intramolecular substitution of the resulting phenylselenonyl group by the nitrogen atom.
