Abstract
Epoxides undergo rapid ring opening with a range of alcohols in the presence of catalytic amount of carbon tetrabromide under mild and convenient conditions to afford the corresponding β-alkoxy alcohols and 1,2-diols in high yields with high regioselectivity.
Keywords
epoxides - carbon tetrabromide - alcohols - β-hydroxy ethers
