    Abstract: The enantioselective ring-opening of meso-aziridines with azide nucleophiles proceeded in the presence of a catalytic amount of a chiral phosphoric acid catalyst. The reaction affords the formation of the products in excellent yield and ...

    Abstract: We have developed, on the basis of a chelation-strategy, an efficient copper-catalyzed aziridination protocol with the use of 5-methyl-2-pyridinesulfonamide and PhI(OAc)₂. The reaction proceeds smoothly under mild conditions to give aziridines in moderate ...

    Abstract: A mild protocol for the synthesis of cis-aziridines is described that employs a catalytic amount of Brønsted acid. Despite the potential for diazo compound decomposition via alkylation or homocoupling upon exposure to a proton source, these pathways are ...
