title: New phenylselanyl group activation: synthesis of aziridines and oxazolidin-2-ones.
abstract: After the study of different phenylselanyl group activators, halogenation by N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) has been shown to be the most suitable manner for cyclizing beta-phenylselanyl amines into aziridines and also enabled production of oxazolidin-2-ones from N-Boc beta-phenylselanyl amines in excellent yield.
