Abstract

A new approach for the synthesis of N–H ketoaziridines is described. 1-aminopyridinium iodide as a NH transferring agent provides a straightforward access to the 2-aroyl-3-arylaziridines from the corresponding 1,3-diarylprop-2-en-1-one. A possible general mechanism involving the N–N ylide is proposed.
