Microwave-assisted ring-opening of activated aziridines with resin-bound amines.

This paper describes the first study of nucleophilic ring-opening of nosylamide-activated aziridines under microwave irradiation conditions in solid-phase synthesis (SPS). The effects of solvent, temperature, reaction time, and reagent ratio in SPS of partially protected triamines from aziridines and resin-bound diamines were investigated. The methodology was also optimized for the synthesis of novel amino acid derivatives.
