: Oxiranes are regioselectively cleaved by benzenethiol in presence of cobalt(II) chloride or Co2(CO)8 to the corresponding β-hydroxy sulfides in good yields. A mechanistic study of this reaction reveals that an electron transfer process is involved in these transformations and the reaction is proceeding via the formation of a carbon-cobalt bond.
