5 Miscellaneous Reactions of Substituents Attached to Ring Carbon Atoms 

Aziridines which have a sulfinyl group attached to a ring carbon can be stereospecifically desul-finylated with organometallic reagents, as shown in Equation (29) in Section 1.01.6.4 above 

Desilylation of the C-silylaziridine (91) with caesium fluoride produced the 2//-azirine (92) in good yield by an elimination reaction (Equation (41)) 89CC836 . The aziridine (91) was prepared by addition of a nitrene to a vinyl silane (see Section 1.01.9.2). 

The reactions of aziridine bearing an imino group at C(2) (aziridine imines) have been reviewed B-83MI 101-01, 84CHEC-I(7)47 .
