Aziridinocyclobutenes react with electron-deficient or ring-strained alkenes to produce 7-azanorbornenes in a novel 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction suitable for block assembly protocols. Benzo-7-azanorbornadiene and 7-heterobridged analogues react stereoselectively to produce compounds with syn-facial orientation of their bridges.
