We report the efficient combination of SNAr and organic Br?nsted acid catalysis protocols for the construction of cis-aziridine-derived biaryl and triaryl ethers. Using aza-Darzens chemistry mono-cis-aziridine-biaryl and bis-(cis-aziridine)-triaryl ethers have been generated; these motifs have significant potential as easily synthesised, functionalised precursors of a glycopeptide backbone.

We report a multi-component asymmetric Br?nsted acid-catalyzed aza-Darzens reaction which is not limited to specific aromatic or heterocyclic aldehydes. Incorporating alkyl diazoacetates and, important for high ee's, ortho-tert-butoxyaniline our optimized reaction (i.e. solvent, temperature and catalyst study) affords excellent yields (61–98 %) and mostly >90 % optically active cis-aziridines. (+)-Chloramphenicol was generated in 4 steps from commercial starting materials. A tentative mechanism is outlined.
Oxidant controlled regio- and stereodivergent azidohydroxylation of alkenes via I2 catalysis

A novel, I2 catalyzed regio- and stereodivergent vicinal azidohydroxylation of alkenes leading to 1,2-azidoalcohols in high yields (up to 92%) and excellent dr (up to 98%) has been developed. This unprecedented transformation employs NaN3 and DMF as N- and O-nucleophiles respectively. The role of DMF as the O-source in the reaction has been unequivocally proven by 18O labelling studies.
