Abstract
2-Methyleneaziridinyl anions can be produced by selective deprotonation of the parent aziridine at C-3 using sec-BuLi/TMEDA. Subsequent reaction with a wide variety of electrophiles including MeI, ICH2CH2CH2CH2Cl, PhCH2Br, allyl bromide, Me3SiCl, Bu3SnCl, PhCHO and Ph2CO provides the corresponding C-3 substituted derivatives in moderate to good yields (43-91%). In the case of homochiral methyleneaziridines bearing an (S)-alpha-methylbenzyl group on nitrogen, high levels of diastereocontrol (up to 90%de) can be achieved in this lithiation/alkylation sequence.
