The reaction of 4‐mesyloxymethylazetidin‐2‐one derivatives 3 with ammonia and sodium methoxide was investigated. The two electrophilic centers of the substrate reactesuccessively, resulting in cleavage of the lactam bond and formation of a new aziridine ring. The resulting type 6 and 8 aziridinylacetic acid derivatives are related to the novel 2‐(aziridin‐2‐yl)‐3‐phenylpropionic acid type carboxypeptidase A inhibitors and, as such, potential drug candidates.
