The object of the present invention is to produce an optically active N-substituted azetidine-2-carboxylic acid by an efficient, expendient and commercially profitable process. The present invention provides a production method of an optically active N-substituted azetidine-2-carboxyic acid represented by the general formula (2): in the formula, R represents a substituted oxycarbonyl type protecting group or a substituted sulfonyl type protective group and * represents an asymmetric carbon atom which comprises cyclizing an optically active 4-substituted amino-2-halobutyric acid represented by the general formula (1): in the formula, R represents a substituted oxycarbonyl type protective group or a substituted sulfonyl type protective group, X represents a halogen atom and * represents an asymmetric carbon atom, in the presence of a base.
A production method of an optically active N-substituted azetidine-2-carboxylic acid represented by the formula (2):
