Popis: Highly regioselective reactions of a benzylidene-protected oxetane with (i) triethylsilane-trifluoroacetic acid and (ii) Hanessian-Hullar bromination provide efficient access to 3-hydroxyoxetane carboxylates in which only the C-3 OH is unprotected. Subsequent nucleophilic displacements of the corresponding triflates by azide proceeds in consistently excellent yields without any elimination to provide syntheses of scaffolds for a range of methyl and hydroxymethyl analogues of the antibiotic oxetin, a naturally occurring oxetane cis-β-amino acid. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
