2-(Bromomethyl)-1-sulfonylaziridines were converted into novel 3-sulfonamido-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,5-benzothiazepines upon treatment with 2-aminothiophenol in THF in the presence of K2CO3. Starting from 3-substituted 2-(sulfonyloxymethyl)aziridines, a regio- and stereocontrolled synthesis of trans-2-phenyl- and trans-4-(phenyl or propyl)-3-sulfonamido-2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,5-benzothiazepines was developed in good yields via two different reaction pathways, depending on the nature of the sulfonyloxy group.
