Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4.40 g (43.5 mmol) methyl aziridine-2-carboxylate and 13.5 ml (97.3 mmol) triethylamine in 30 ml methylene chloride is combined with 8.80 g (48.6 mmol) 5-chlorothiophenecarboxylic acid chloride in 30 ml methylene chloride while cooling with ice and subsequently after removal of the cooling bath stirred for 3 h at room temperature. Then the mixture is diluted with water, extracted with methylene chloride, dried with sodium sulphate, concentrated and purified by chromatography (silica gel, petroleum ether/ethyl acetate 80/15->80/20) to obtain the slightly contaminated title compound.
