• cyclitols [30][31][32][33] and C8-aminocyclitols [18][19][20][21][22][23][24], we were interested in developing an efficient synthesis of aziridinecyclooctanediol. In the present paper, we report the efficient synthesis of aziridinecyclooctanediol and a new 3-aminocyclooctanetriol stereoisomer starting from
