A facile tetrahydrothiophene-catalyzed ylide route to vinyloxiranes

Abstract

Access to vinyloxiranes using aldehydes and allylic bromides in the presence of 1–5 mol% tetrahydrothiophene is reported. Both aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes work well in this reaction and the catalyst loading could be reduced as low as 0.5 mol%.
