A high-yield synthesis of 1-triphenylmethyl-3-tert-butylaziridinone (4), its physical and spectral properties, the limits of its thermal stability, and reactions with methanol, benzylamine and sodium methoxide in methanol are described.
A high-yielding general synthesis of α-lactams (aziridinones) is described. An α-haloamide 1 precursor is cyclized by sodium hydride in the presence of 15-crown-5 ether at room temperature, using dichloromethane as the solvent. The hy-products, hydrogen gas and sodium halide. are easily removed. The yields for the six known α-lactams (2b-g) chosen for this study are comparable or superior to previously

3-tert-butyl-1-triphenylmethylaziridinone (1e), and 1-(1-adamantyl)-3-tert-butylaziridinone (1g) with some substituted benzylamines and other selected primary amines is described. It emerges from the experimental results that the relativebasicity of the amine is a decisive factor in determining regioselectivity in the ring-opening.
