The reaction of trans-diepoxycyclopentane with azide leads in methanol to the expected azidohydrins; a 1,4-adduct with a 'central' epoxy group is also formed. When the reaction is carried out in acetone/water 1:1, an additional product, which is the acetonide of an azido-trihydoxycyclopentane, is observed. This compound must have been formed by participation of the solvent followed by cyclization.

The reaction of trans-1,2:3,4-diepoxycyclopentane with amines was investigated.With the reagents in a molar ratio of 1:1 the final products are trans-2,3-epoxy-trans-5-aminocyclopentanols and/or trans-2,3-epoxy-cis-4-aminocyclopentanols.The analogous reaction with an excess of the amine leads to the formation of trans-1,3:2,5-3,5-diaminocyclopentane-1,2-diols.The reaction mechanism is discussed.
