Bi(NO3)3·5H2O a highly efficient environmentally benign catalyst, is used for the nucleophilic ring opening of epoxides with aromatic, aliphatic and heteroaromatic amines under solvent free microwave conditions to afford the corresponding β-amino alcohols in good to excellent yields with high regioselectivity.

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.

Anhydrous titanium(III) chloride was found to be a simple and efficient Lewis acid catalyst for ring opening of epoxides at ambient temperature. The reaction proceeded smoothly with anilines as well as azide ion as nucleophiles to give the corresponding β-amino alcohols and β-azido alcohols in moderate to good yields.

MgO catalyzed efficiently the ring opening of epoxides with a range of aromatic and aliphatic amines to produce β-substituted alcohols in high yields under solvent-free conditions. Exclusive trans stereoselectivity is observed for cyclic epoxide.Key words: MgO, β-amino alcohols, solvent-free, epoxide, amine.

The regioselective epoxide ring opening at less substituted carbon atom of epoxide were reported by nucleophiles like heterocyclic amines which gives well known 1,2-difunctionalized amino alcohols. These are present in many synthetic as well as natural products. The ring opening of epoxide is achieved by cleavage with amines in presence of copper(0) as a catalyst. It is observed that the lithium napthalenide reduction of copper(I) produces a highly reactive form of copper(0) that acts as a catalyst for ring opening of epoxides with an amine.
