The ring opening of NH-aziridines with thiols was found to proceed in good yield at room temperature in the presence of an ionic liquid—1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BMIM chloride). This mild methodology was applied to the synthesis of a camphor-derived chiral aminosulfide. The sulfide was used to generate a sulfur ylide, which effected an asymmetric epoxidation of benzaldehyde (er 85: 15, trans: cis 90: 10, 87% yield). The amino group ...
