Abstract:
Novel phosphoaziridines of the formula: ##STR1## wherein Z is oxygen or sulfur, R. sub. 1 is independently at each occurrence H or --CH. sub. 3, R. sub. 2 is independently at each occurrence --CH. sub. 3 or nitrophenyl R. sub. 5 ; R. sub. 3 is --NHR. sub. 4, --OR. sub. 4, --SR. sub. 4 or ##STR2## where R. sub. 4 is a radical containing up to 30 atoms including at least one amine, ester, ether, alkyl, substituted alkyl, hydrogen, phenyl, substituted phenyl, carbamate, heterocyclic ring or R. sub. 5 group; provided that, when R. sub. 4 contains and R. sub. 5 group, R. sub. 4 has an alkyl group between the phosphorous and the R. sub. 5 group; and R. sub. 5 is a radical containing and electron affinic group comprising a quinone, or a heterocyclic or phenyl ring directly connected to a radical selected from the group consisting of nitro, nitroso, sulfinyl, sulfoxine, and N-oxide; provided that the compound contains at least one R. sub. 5 radical and provided that when R. sub. 1 is H, the R. sub.
