| Abstract: | Aziridines undergo ring opening smoothly with various arylamines in 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (bmim]BF4) or 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (bmim]PF6) ionic liquids under mild and neutral conditions to afford the corresponding vicinal‐diamines in excellent yields with high regioselectivity. The recovered activated ionic liquids are recycled for four to five runs with no loss of activity. |
