DOI: 10.1055/a-2077-5084
Abstract: Herein a yttrium-catalyzed regioselective ring opening reaction of 2,3-epoxy esters and amides with amines as nucleophiles is pre-sented. This method features high regiocontrol, enantiospecific SN2 reaction pathway, broad substrate scope and mild reaction condi-tions, furnishing… read more here.
