title: Sonocatalyzed facile and mild one pot synthesis of gem-dichloroaziridine derivatives under alkaline conditions.
abstract: In this research, rapid and efficient preparation of 2,2-dichloro-1,3-diarylaziridines through the reaction of Schiff base compounds with dichlorocarbene yielded in situ from chloroform and sodium hydroxide without any phase transfer catalyst under ultrasonic irradiation is described. The advantages of this reaction are very short reaction times, excellent product yields, simplicity of the method and high purity of products.
