The synthesis of a new family of halogenated β‐lactams by oxidative substitution of vinylic hydrogen in conjugated double bonds of 4‐alkylidenazetidinones is reported. Optimised procedures give good to excellent yields of chloro, bromo, iodo and nitro derivatives. A mechanism to explain the direct vinylic substitution is proposed. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
