Abstract

A highly efficient and selective protocol for the oxygenation of various aldimines to oxaziridines, which proceeds in excellent yields with enhanced selectivity by using alumina‐supported MoO~3~ as a recyclable heterogeneous catalyst and anhydrous TBHP as the ultimate oxidant, is described.
