4Å molecular sieves catalyzed ring-opening of epoxides to 1,2-diacetates with acetic anhydride
This study was aimed at highly stereoselective ring-opening of epoxides with acetic anhydride in the presence of molecular sieves 4Å as an efficient reagent. Yields of the 1,2-diacetates are uniformly good to excellent and the reagent may be recycled without the requirement for purification. High yi...
