An environmentally benign and rapid thiolysis of epoxides using a biodegradable, choline-based task-specific ionic liquid has been developed. The ring opening reaction of aryl and alkyl epoxides proceeded rapidly and afforded the corresponding β-hydroxysulfides in high yields with excellent regioselectivity. The protocol has the advantages of easy work-up, short reaction times, high yields, and a biodegradable catalyst.
