[reaction: see text] Thermolysis of beta-lactam-tethered enallenyl alcohols gave tricyclic ring structures via a formal [2 + 2] cycloaddition of the alkene with the distal bond of the allene, while the tin-promoted radical cyclization in 2-azetidinone-tethered allenynes proceeded to provide bicyclic beta-lactams containing a medium-sized ring. The access to cyclization precursors was achieved by regio- and stereoselective metal-mediated carbonyl allenylation of 4-oxoazetidine-2-carbaldehydes in an aqueous environment.
