Nucleophilic substitution reactions of 2-halo-2H-azirine with potassium phthalimide and aniline allowed the preparation of new substituted 2H-azirines. The reactions of 2-bromo-3-phenyl-2H-azirine-2-carboxylate with methylamine led to the synthesis of [alpha]-diimines and from the reaction with water, a 3-oxazoline was obtained.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6THS-4152YMR-K/1/e94005b66b66b6820ad27458f2562ed
