Dilithium tetrachlorocuprate. A reagent for regioselective cleavage of epoxides to chlorohydrins.
TL;DR: In this article, the title compound reacts with epoxides to selectively afford the vicinal chlorohydrin resulting from attack by chloride at the less substituted carbon atom, and it is shown that the epoxide can be used as a poison.

Alkylative epoxide rearrangement. A stereospecific approach to chiral epoxide pheromones
T. W. Bell,James A. Ciaccio +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the alkylative rearrangement of 1,2-epoxy-3-alkanol tosylates is applied to the synthesis of chiral epoxide pheromones.

Conversion of epoxides to bromohydrins by B-bromobis (dimethylamino) borane
Thonas W. Bell,James A. Ciaccio +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the reaction of the title reagent with 1-alkene oxides regioselectively yields the corresponding 1-bromo-2-alkanols, while the more substituted bromide predominates in the cases of styrene oxide and 1-methylcyclohexene oxide.

Alkylation epoxide rearrangement. Application to stereoselective synthesis of chiral pheromone epoxides.
T. W. Bell,James A. Ciaccio +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an approach for the stereospecific conversion of threo and erythro 1,2-epoxy-3-alkanol tosylates to cis and trans internal epoxides, respectively, is described.
