Abstract

Epoxides and aziridines undergo ring opening efficiently with (bromodimethyl) sulfonium bromide at room temperature to form the corresponding β-bromohydrins and β- bromoamines, respectively. The conversions are highly regioselective and afford the products in excellent yields within a short period of time.
