A variety of structurally diverse epoxides undergo facile cleavages by ionic liquid, [AcMIm]X without any catalyst and solvent to produce the corresponding vicinal halohydrins in high yields. The cleavages are considerably fast and highly regioselective.

A simple efficient, stereoselective, and regioselective method for the synthesis of β-chlorohydrins, β-bromohydrins, and β-iodohydrins by the direct opening of 1,2-epoxides with the corresponding ammonium halide in acetonitrile, in the presence of metal salts, is described.This new method appears to be of general use and competitive with the other methods previously reported.
