Iron(IV) corroles are potent catalysts for aziridination of olefins by Chloramine-T

Iron(III) corroles were found to be more selective catalysts than analogous porphyrins for the aziridination of olefins by PhI=NTs, and, most important, the iron(IV) corrole 1 displays the unique ability of utilizing Chloramine-T as nitrogen atom source.
