Green synthesis of thiiranes from epoxides catalyzed by magnetically separable CuFe2O4/Mg(OH)2 nanocomposite in water under benign conditions

The magnetically separable CuFe2O4/Mg(OH)2 nanocomposite was prepared and characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM, EDS, and VSM techniques. The synthesized nanoparticles were used as a new and efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the conversion of various epoxides to the corresponding thiiranes with thiourea in water solvent at room temperature. The reactions were completed within 1–3.7 h to give thiiranes in 70–99% yields. The applied CuFe2O4/Mg(OH)2 nanocomposite was separated easily using an external magnet and reused for several times without any considerable loss of activity.

A green protocol for rapid and efficient conversion of epoxides to thiiranes using alumina immobilized thiourea at solvent-free conditions

Solvent-free conversion of various epoxides to the corresponding thiiranes was carried out successfully with alumina-immobilized thiourea at room temperature. The reactions were completed within 2-9 min to give thiiranes with 83-98% yields. The utilized alumina can be reused for several times without losing its activity.

An efficient and improved method for the conversion of oxiranes into thiiranes using graphite oxide

An efficient and improved procedure has been developed for the conversion of oxiranes into thiiranes using sodium thiocyanate in the presence of graphite oxide under solvent-free conditions at an ambient temperature in excellent yields and in short reaction times.
