Abstract
The enantioselective aziridination of alkenes with [N-(4-nitrophenylsulfonyl) imino[phenyliodinane catalyzed by dirhodium(II) tetrakis[N-tetrachlorophthaloyl-(S)-tert-leucinate[, Rh2(S-TCPTTL)4, is described. While such enantioselectivities are highly dependent on the properties of the alkenes, 2,2-dimethylchromene was found to be a particularly suitable substrate which can be efficiently transformed into the aziridine product in 98% yield with 94% ee.
