Abstract An efficient one-pot synthesis of functionalized adamantylaziridines by aza-Michael initiated ring closure (aza-MIRC) reaction of 1-aminoadamantane with α-halogenated Michael acceptors is described. The reaction goes through an aza-Michael intermediate that undergoes an intramolecular nucleophilic substitution. Expectedly, high pressure exerts a beneficial influence in the case of sterically hindered reagents.
