During the course of an investigation of the lower alkyl hydrazines in this Laboratory, it became a matter of importance to synthesize the as yet unknown bicyclic compound, 1, 1'- biaziridine (I). A method of preparation of the compound became available when it was found that 1-chloroaziridine could be obtained from ethylenimine and aqueous hypochlorite. 1, l'-Biaziridine was then prepared from the reaction of 1-chloroaziridine with the known 1- ...
