Published: April 2001

Chiral 1-aminoalkyl chloromethyl ketimines 2 are synthesized in enantiomerically pure form starting from 1-aminoalkyl chloromethyl ketones 1 and different amines. Reduction of amino ketimines 2 and subsequent spontaneous cyclization affords aminoalkyl aziridines 3 with high diastereoisomeric excess and without detectable racemization.
