Abstract:
A new C-2 symmetric bis-aziridine derivative was synthesized starting from L-(+)-tartaric acid. The molecular structure of (+)-(2R, 3R)-N, N'-bis-trityl-2,3-bis-aziridine 4, was determined by H-1, C-13 NMR and elemental analysis and was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Crystal data for 4: C42H36N2, orthorhombic, space group: P2(1)2(1)2(1), a = 12.7633(14), b = 14.5661(6), c = 17.4184(14) Angstrom, and Z = 4.
