A novel procedure for the synthesis of aziridines: application of Simmons–Smith reagents to aziridination

The reaction of Simmons–Smith carbenoids with imines in the presence of sulfides provides N-( p-toluenesulfonyl)- and N-[(1,1,1-trimethylsilyl)ethyl]sulfonyl-substituted aziridines in high yield. Graphic
