ChemInform Abstract: Trimethylsilyldiazomethane as a Versatile Stitching Agent for the Introduction of Aziridines into Functionalized Organic Molecules.

Abstract

AbstractAcylation of trimethylsilyldiazomethane with aliphatic acid chlorides is coupled with the catalytic asymmetric aziridination of aldimines with a chiral polyborate Broensted acid catalyst, derived from the biaryl ligands VAPOL and VANOL.
