β¦ Synopsis
Treatment of trifluoroacetaldehyde N,O-acetal with diazoacetate in the presence of a Lewis acid furnished CF 3 -substituted aziridinecarboxylates in good yields. Both cis and trans isomers were obtained stereoselectively by the proper choice of the ester substituents. Use of a chiral diazoacetate derived from (R)-pantolactone led to highly diastereoselective aziridination (94% de).

A piperidinyl aziridine underwent alcoholic nucleophilic addition with alcohols to result in corresponding trans 3-amino-4-substituted piperidines. The addition reaction was catalyzed by BF 3 β’OEt 2 in excellent regio-and stereoselectivity. The application of this method was extended to the addition
