12. To the best of our knowledge, the only example of a [2+2] cycloaddition reaction of a four-membered olefin to a ketene was described by Conia and co-workers reporting the reaction of cyclobutene to dichloroketene (Fadel, A.; Salaün, J.; Conia, J. M. Tetrahedron, 1983, 39, 1567). However, examples employing four-membered nitrogen analogues (2-azetines) are not described in the literature.

21. 6 under reflux were fruitless. Also, a direct Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of 2 did not provide the expected dichlorolactone.
22. The use of MeOH as solvent causes ring open of bicyclic cyclobutanone 2 to furnish a methyl ester, together with cyclobutanol 7 (ratio 1:1).
