Cross-linked poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) resin beads were prepared as macromolecular ligand precursors by suspension copolymerization of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone and N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as a crosslinking agent in water. Subsequently, the resulting polymer carrier precursor was readily combined with titanium tetrachloride to form a stable polymeric coordination complex (PNVP/TiCl4), and this novel stable TiCl4 equivalent evaluated as a heterogeneous and reusable solid Lewis acid catalyst for the regio-and stereoselective nucleophilic ring opening of various epoxides with various alcohols to prepare β-alkoxy alcohols in excellent yields without generating any waste. The MBA-cross-linked PNVP and resultant catalyst were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT–IR), field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE–SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), inductively coupled plasma (ICP), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) techniques. Moreover, the catalyst is very stable, easily separated, and reused at least five times without significant loss of activity. In terms of scope, yields, the amount of catalyst used, and reaction time, the PNVP-TiCl4 complex catalyst is an improvement over previously reported heterogeneous catalysts for ring opening of epoxides methods. Further, the experimental outcome revealed that using the copolymer beads as carriers with a high percentage of crosslinking and the high mesh size leads had an adverse effect on the reaction rate.

SbF3as an efficient catalyst has been used for regioselective alcoholysis, acetolysis and hydrolysis of epoxides to the corresponding β-alkoxy, β-acetoxy alcohols, and 1,2-diols in high to excellent yields. This study also represents a convenient synthesis of vic-diacetates from ring-opening of epoxides with acetic anhydride.

A new polymeric catalyst was prepared by supporting GaCl3 on cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone (GaCl3/ PVP). This catalyst was employed for efficient and regioselective ring-opening reaction of epoxides by various alcohols under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. In our procedure, this heterogeneous catalyst was used at neutral and mild reaction conditions to afford high yields of β-alkoxy alcohols. Also, regioselective conversion of epoxides to β-azidohydrines was accomplished by sodium azide in MeOH in the presence of GaCl3/PVP at room temperature. GaCl3/PVP is a non-hygroscopic and recoverable catalyst and is easily separated from reaction mixture by a simple filtration and re-used repeatedly. Also, this catalyst has good handling and can be stored for long time without any reducing of its reactivity.
