(equation presented) Olefinic primary sulfonamides were treated with iodebenzene diacetate and potassium hydroxide in methanol to give intermediate iminoiodinanes. Catalytic copper(I) or (II) triflate then provided intramolecular nitrene delivery leading to aziridene formation except in one case where a rare copper-catalyzed C-H insertion was observed. The aziridines could be opened by various nucleophiles (methanol, thiophenol, allylmagnesium bromide, benzylamine) to give the corresponding substituted cyclic sulfonamides.
