Chiral-bromonitriles were prepared with good chemical and optical yields starting from natural-amino acids by dehydrating the corresponding α-bromoamides with thionyl chloride. The combined system-bromonitriles/ hydrogen peroxide was examined for the enantio-and diastereoselective oxidation of N-alkylimines in basic media at room temperature. The oxidation of N-tertiobutylarylimines leads to optically active oxaziridines with moderate enantiomeric excess. However, the oxidation of (S)-1-phenylethylarylimines affords the corresponding oxaziridines with good diasteromeric excess up to 97/3 as proved by gaseous-phase chromatography.
