ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of New N-Aminoaziridine Derivatives by the Addition of Dibenzyloxycarbonylaminonitrene to Olefins

In order to study the ring expansion of N-aminoaziridines into N-amino-5-membered heterocycles, N-(dibenzyloxycarbonylamino)aziridines were synthesized. N, N-Dibenzyloxycarbonylhydrazine was prepared. It was then oxidized with lead tetraacetate to a new diacylaminonitrene. This nitrene was added to various olefins to give the corresponding N-protected aminoaziridines. Cleavage of the protecting groups was realized for one example.
