2‐Alkylaziridines react with carbonyl compounds in the presence of hydrogen sulfide to give regioselectively 4‐alkylthiazolidines 1 . With 2‐phenylaziridine 4‐phenyl‐ ( 1d ) and 5‐phenyl‐thiazolidine ( 2d ) are obtained, the latter in larger amounts. This result is rationalized on the basis of pseudoconjugation between the phenyl and aziridine ring.
