Abstract
(E)-Methoxy alkenes derived from N-Boc or NCbz alpha-amino acids undergo st ereoselective addition of phenyl selenyl chloride in the presence of Ti(Oi- Pr)(4) and LiCl to give the corresponding phenylselenyl aldehydes that can be easily transformed into new enantiomericalIy pure amino acids containing an aziridine ring.
