57. 2 as catalyst to give the corresponding 2-substituted N-tosylaziridines in moderate yields (35-50%). Only major isomers of which structures were assigned tentatively as irons were separated and subjected to reductive cleavage reaction. All the spectral data were in accord with the structure assigned.
