Abstract
tert-Butyl hypoiodite (t-BuOI) was found to be a powerful reagent for synthesis of aziridines from olefins and sulfonamides. The aziridination of olefins was achieved by using sulfonamides with t-BuOI. Our preliminary findings represent the example of metal-free aziridination of olefins with readily accessible sulfonamides as a nitrogen source.
