Introducing the Aziridination of Fluorinated Olefins by Metal‐Catalyzed Nitrene Transfer

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: After decades of development of the metal‐catalyzed nitrene transfer reactions to olefins, examples involving the use of fluorinated olefins is yet unknown, despite the current importance of fluorocompounds. Herein we describe the use of copper‐ and silver‐based catalysts for a general protocol that converts α‐ or β‐fluoro olefins into the corresponding aziridines in high yields.
