Abstract

The Gabriel–Cromwell method is applied successfully in the synthesis of ferrocenyl‐substituted aziridines. Acryloyl‐ and crotonoylferrocenes are brominated first and then reacted with benzylamine, diisopropylamine, and furfurylamine in the presence of triethylamine. The aziridines are obtained in more than 90% isolated yields.
