| Aziridines are present in several antitumor and antibiotic natural products, such as the mitomycin, porfiromycin, and the FR and FK compounds. We plan to pursue a simple N-H aziridination method, which is a relatively limited area of synthetic organic chemistry. Diaziridines, the nitrogen equivalent of dioxiranes, represent a promising class of aziridinating agents for alkenes. Modeling the electrophilic dioxirane epoxidation methods, we hope to develop an efficient aziridinating agent using functionalized diaziridines.
