Thiiranes are important starting materials for the synthesis of substituted taurines. The regioselectivity of ring-opening reactions of thiiranes with ammonia in the presence of silver nitrate was investigated. The results of the ring-opening reaction and subsequent peroxy acid oxidation indicate that alkyl-substituted thiiranes give rise to 1-monoalkyl- and 1,1-dialkyltaurines, whereas aryl-substituted thiiranes produce 2-aryl-, 2-alkyl-2-aryl-, and 2,2-diaryltaurines. This shows that alkyl-substituted thiiranes were attacked on their less-substituted ring carbon atoms, while aryl-substituted thiiranes were attacked on their more substituted ring carbon atoms. The current method is an effective and atom-economic route for the synthesis of mono- and disubstituted α-alkyl-and β-aryl-substituted taurines. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.

An effective and versatile method was developed to synthesize N-benzyloxycarbonyl-protected and free 2,2-disubstituted taurines. Several novel 2,2-disubstituted taurines, including aliphatic/aromatic and cyclic/acyclic derivatives, were obtained, which demonstrates the generality of this method. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
