Abstract

AbstractThe BF3⋅OEt2‐catalyzed reaction of azulene with N‐protected aziridines represents a general, efficient (up to 91% yield) and regioselective approach to phenethylamine‐azulene conjugates. Stereochemical studies and DFT calculations lend support to a concerted SN2‐type mechanism governing the ring‐opening of the aziridine.
