Cathodic AziridinationUsing Dichloramine-Tas a Nitrogen Source

Aziridines are valuable motifs in organic synthesis due to their biological activities and their utility as synthetic intermediates. Although electrochemical methods have been developed for aziridine synthesis, these approaches rely on anodic oxidation. This study reports the first cathodic reduction-promoted aziridine formation using dichloramine-T as a nitrogen source. The reaction conditions were optimized via Gaussian process regression. Overall, this strategy enables aziridine formation with broad substrate scope, providing a practical platform that expands the electrochemical synthesis toolbox.
