Regioselective ring opening of oxiranes catalysed by montmorillonite clay: A simple synthesis of β-hydroxy sulfones

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919108016785

Oxiranes and sodium p-toluene sulfinate salt react smoothly in a regioselective manner in the presence of montmorillonite clay to furnish the corresponding β-hydroxy sulfones in good to excellent yield.
