combined toluene extracts were dried over anhydrous MgSO, and the solvent was evaporated on an efficient rotary evaporator keeping the bath temperature below 40 "C. The resulting viscous oil was washed with a few milliliters of n-pentane to afford the sulfamyloxaziridines lb. The purity and diastereomer ratios were determined by NMR and melting point.

Note added in proof:We have observed that Oxone that has been exposed to moisture for several months gives reduced reactivity in the oxidations described here.
