Efficient nitrene precursors : Highly reactive iminoiodane‐based nitrene precursors were prepared from ortho ‐alkoxyiodobenzenes. Owing to the presence of the ortho ‐substituent on the phenyl ring, these new iminoiodanes have excellent solubility in organic solvents and are efficient reagents for the catalytic aziridination of alkenes or the metal‐free tosylamination of organic substrates (see scheme, Ts=tosyl).
