NON-ACTIVATED AZIRIDINES AS BUILDING BLOCKS FOR THE SYNTHESIS OF AZA-HETEROCYCLES

Abstract
This microreview deals with ring opening reactions of non-activated aziridines and their applications in heterocycle synthesis. Only recent methods published in the last five years are discussed.
Keywords
aziridine; nucleophilic ring opening reaction; synthesis of aza-heterocycles
