A new synthetic protocol for the LiAlH(4)-promoted reduction of non-activated aziridines under microwave conditions was developed. Thus, ring opening of 2-(acetoxymethyl)aziridines provided the corresponding beta-amino alcohols, which were then used as eligible substrates in the synthesis of 5-methylmorpholin-2-ones via condensation

trans- and cis-1-Alkyl-4-aryl-3-chloroazetidin-2-ones, prepared through cyclocondensation of chloroketene and the appropriate imines in a diastereoselective way, were transformed into the corresponding non-activated trans- and cis-2-aryl-3-(hydroxymethyl)aziridines via reductive ring contraction using LiAlH(4) in Et(2)O. Furthermore, trans-2-aryl-3-(hydroxymethyl)aziridines were transformed into 2-amino-3-arylpropan-1-ols and
