Direct Conversion of Epoxides into Aziridines with N-Arylphosphoramidates. -The method represents a concise atom economic improvement of existing procedures for such transformations. In contrast the aziridation using electron-rich phosphoramidates, electron-deficient phosphoramidates such as (VIc) require the addition of a Lewis acid. Phosphoramidates deriving from electron-rich anilines such as (VIIa) may decompose upon isolation. -(MINICONE, F.; ROGERS, W. J.; GREEN, J. F. J.; KHAN, M.; SMITH, G. M. T.; BRAY*, C.
