A convenient method for the synthesis of previously unknown oxaziridines having unsaturated substituents at the 3‐position ( 3a – k ) is based on the selective oxidation of the imino group of α,β‐unsaturated aldimines 2 with m ‐chloroperbenzoic acid. The title compounds and 2‐ tert ‐butyl‐3‐(phenylethynyl)oxaziridine ( 3k ) exhibit potent activity against experimental tumor cells in vitro.
