Action des sulfonyloxaziridines sur une imine. Obtention d'une nitrone par transfert regioselectif de l'oxygene sur l'azote

A pyrrolinic imine has been found to react concurrently with the nitrogen or the oxygen of a $\text{N}$-sulfonyl oxaziridine leading to a N-sulfonyl diaziridine and a nitrone respectively. By contrast an oxaziridine is obtained with a peracid. A possible relation between the regioselectivity of the oxygen transfer and the nature of the reagent is outlined.
