Synthesis of 2-nitroalcohols by regioselective ring opening of epoxides with MgSO4/MeOH/NaNO2 system: A short synthesis of immunosuppressive agent FTY-720

It has been demonstrated that a variety of epoxides can easily be opened with a system consisting of MgSO4/MeOH/NaNO2 giving the corresponding 2-nitroalcohols in excellent yields. This strategy has been applied to achieve a short synthesis of Immunosuppressive Agent FTY - 720.
