Abstract
1-Methoxycarbonylaziridines react under mild conditions with a number of nucleophilic reagents such as water, acids, alcohols, and amines with opening of the aziridine ring. In the case of 7-methoxycarbonyl-7-azabicyclo[4.1.0]heptane it was shown by PMR spectroscopy that the ring-opening reaction is realized stereoselectively to give trans-1,2-disubstituted cyclohexanes.
