2,3-Diaryl-1-phthalimidoaziridines and 2,3-diaryl-1-phthalimidoaziridine-2-carbonitriles were found to readily undergo thermal rearrangement into imines via 1,2-migration of the phthalimido group and accompanying C-C bond cleavage. Isomerization proceeds regioselectively with preferable migration to the electron-deficient carbon atom. Interestingly, this reaction was found to predominate even in the presence of dipolarophiles.
