摘要

Thiolysis of 1,2-epoxides represents an effective and convenient entry to β-hydroxy sulfides, an important class of intermediates for constructing both synthetic pharmaceuticals 1 and naturally occurring substances. 2 Tremendous research efforts have been devoted to this useful transformation. For instance, the reaction can be conducted in common organic solvents with the catalysis of Ti(OPr) 4 , 3a CeCl 3 , 3b CoCl 2 , 3c LiClO 4 , 3d SmI 2 , 3b and 3e or AlR ...
