For the first time the nitrogen inversion barriers in 3,3-unsubstituted trans-diaziridines, such as 1,2-di-tert-butyldiaziridine (1) and 1,2-di-n-butyldiaziridine (2) were determined. Enantioselective stopped-flow multidimensional gas chromatography was used to investigate the enantiomerization barr

✦ Synopsis
l~~4cu,~-3,7-Diazatricyelo[4.1.0.0~4]heptane (cis-diaziridinocyclopentane) (1) has been prepared from the analogous cis-diepoxycyclopentane. Ring opening of the diepoxide with sodium azide produced a pair of regioisomeric azido alcohols. Tosylation and treatment with lithium aluminum hydride produced 1 . The dibenzoyl derivative possessed the di-ex0 stereochemistry for the tertiary &dine nitrogem. The 'H spectrum of 1 was temperature dependent. Both the CH and NH resonances underwent decoalescence as the temperature was lowered. Because the rate was independent of concentration, the mechanism is probably inversion of the secondary nitrogen, the first such example to occur by the interchange of two diastereotopic, secondary 0 amine nitrogens within the same molecule. The free energy of activation at coalescence (0 "C) was measured to be 12.8 kcal mol-l. The unsymmetrical slow exchange of 1 is clearly consistent with the exo,endo stereochemistry for the secondary azmdine nitrogem, possibly stabilized by intramolecular attraction.
