Lithium perchlorate catalyzed the ring opening of epoxides with amines to provide the corresponding β-aminoalcohols in excellent yields with high regioselectivity. The reaction proceeds rapidly under mild and neutral conditions and worked well with primary, secondary, aliphatic, aromatic, and hindered amines in short times at room temperature, in the absence of solvent.Key words: epoxide, lithium perchlorate, β-aminoalcohols, solvent-free.

Indium(I) iodide promotes cleavage of dialkyl disulfides generating thiolate anions that then undergo facile addition to α,β-unsaturated ketones, aldehydes, carboxylic esters, and nitriles under neutral conditions producing corresponding β-ketosulfides or β-cyanosulfides. This strategy has also been used for the regioselective nucleophilic ring opening of epoxides by thiolate anions in presence of indium(III) chloride producing corresponding β-hydroxyphenyl sulfides. The reactions are in general, very clean, high yielding, and reasonably fast. Thus, simple and convenient procedures for the synthesis of β-ketosulfides or β-cyanosulfides and β-hydroxyalkyl sulfides have been developed using this cleavage reaction.Key words: indium(I) iodide, Michael addition, β-ketosulfide, β-cyanosulfide, epoxide, β-hydroxy sulfide.
