Montmorillonite K10 catalyzed highly regioselective azidolysis of epoxides: A short and efficient synthesis of phenylglycine

A series of β‐hydroxyazides were effectively synthesized from the regioselective ring opening of epoxides by sodium azide using montmorillonite K10 as a novel heterogeneous catalyst in aqueous acetonitrile in good to excellent yields. The utility of this method has been demonstrated by achieving a short synthesis of phenylglycine in 33.5% overall yield.

Regioselective ring-opening of epoxides by carbazole: A direct preparation of novel N-(β-hydroxyalkyl)carbazoles

The influence of various parameters including solvent, base and temperature on the reaction between carbazole and epoxides was studied This led to the development of a regioselective ring-opening of epoxides by the potassium salt of carbazole in DMSO at 100 °C which is a straightforward way to prepare new N-(β-hydroxyalkyl)carbazoles in good to excellent yields. Fifteen new compounds are described.
