Abstract
A metal-free catalytic aziridination of styrene derivatives with N-tosyliminophenyliodinane (PhI=NTs) is promoted by a combination of I2 and tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI). TBAI3 as highly efficient catalyst as well as N,N-diiodotosylamide as actual aziridination reagent are generated in situ.
