Reaction of Diphenyl Phosphorochloridate with Amide Enolates: A New and Convenient Synthesis of 2-Monosubstituted 3-(N-Methyl-N-phenylamino)-2H-azirines

Article abstract of DOI:10.1002/hlca.19920750612

Reaction of diphenyl phosphorochloridate with amide enolates and subsequent treatment with NaN3 leads to 2-monosubstituted 3-amino-2H-azirines 5 in moderate yields.The reactivity of these azirines is briefly explored.
