Enantioselective aziridination and amination using p-toluenesulfonyl azide in the presence of Ru(salen)(CO) complex
(R,R)-Ru(salen)(CO) complex (1) was found to catalyze enantioselective aziridination of conjugated terminal olefins and allylic C-H amination of conjugated olefins bearing geminal- and/or trans-substituent(s) in the presence of p-toluenesulfonyl azide.
