title: Catalytic aziridination of electron-deficient olefins with an N-chloro-N-sodio carbamate and application of this novel method to asymmetric synthesis.
abstract: A new method for the aziridination of electron-deficient olefins using an N-chloro-N-sodio carbamate is described; the reaction was promoted by phase-transfer catalysis (solid-liquid) and afforded aziridines from alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones, esters, sulfones and amides.
