Abstract
We report that the treatment of unsymmetrical 2,3-disubstituted aziridines with TiCl4 yields β-phenethylamine products via the intermediacy of a phenonium ion. Derivatization of the products obtained via this method is demonstrated. Computational analysis of the reaction pathway provides insight into the reaction mechanism, including the selectivity of the phenonium opening.
