Procedure

A 100 ml quantity of methylene chloride and 7.5 ml of isopropyl alcohol were added to 20 g of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)3-methylene azetidine-2-one 9 and dissolved with stirring. The reaction mixture was cooled to -15° C. after which an ozone gas was introduced over a period of 30 minutes. The excess ozone gas was removed using nitrogen gas and 3 ml of thiodiethanol and 6 g of thiodicresol were added, while being warmed to room temperature and then stirred for 1 hour. The reaction mixture was filtered to remove the precipitated thiodiethanolsulfoxide and washed once with 5% aqueous sodium bicarbonate and twice with 50 ml of water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure, giving 14 g of the title compound 10. The 1H-NMR spectrum of the compound was the same as that of an authentic sample. ##STR5##
