Abstract

Epoxides react smoothly with potassium thiocyanate in the presence of 5 mol% of indium tribromide under mild and convenient reaction conditions to afford the corresponding thiiranes in high yields. This method is compatible with a wide range of protecting groups and functional groups such as alkenes, alkynes, esters, THP, TBDMS, and PMB ethers present in the molecule.
