Abstract

Aziridination of alkenes is an important transformation as aziridines are very important synthetic building blocks, extensively used as electrophiles 1 and synthetic intermediates in the preparation of a wide range of nitrogen-containing compounds. 2 Among the various methods reported in the literature, the metal catalyzed reaction of nitrenes, generated in situ, with olefins is an efficient method for the preparation of aziridines. In this context [N-(p-tolylsulfonyl)imino] ...
