The well-known epoxide-Ritter reaction generally affords oxazolines with poor to average regioselectivity. Herein, a mechanism-based study of the less known diol-Ritter reaction has provided a highly regioselective procedure for the synthesis of 1-vic-amido-2-esters from either terminal epoxides or 1,2-diols via Lewis acid-catalyzed monoesterification. When treated with a stoichiometric Lewis acid catalyst (BF3), these diol monoesters form dioxonium cation intermediates that are ring-opened with nitrile nucleophiles to form nitrilium intermediates, which undergo rapid and irreversible hydration to give the desired amidoesters. Diester byproduct formation is irreversible and appears to occur through disproportionation of diol monoester. With chiral epoxide starting materials, the formation of amidoester occurs with retention of configuration and no apparent erosion of optical purity as determined by single-crystal X-ray analyses and chiral chromatography, respectively. The direct access to chiral vic-amidoesters is especially practical with regard to the synthesis of antibacterial oxazolidinone analogues of the Zyvox antimicrobial family.

SbF3as an efficient catalyst has been used for regioselective alcoholysis, acetolysis and hydrolysis of epoxides to the corresponding β-alkoxy, β-acetoxy alcohols, and 1,2-diols in high to excellent yields. This study also represents a convenient synthesis of vic-diacetates from ring-opening of epoxides with acetic anhydride.

, p. 129 - 132 (2014/01/06)
Supported iron oxide nanoparticles on silicate catalysts were found to be efficient and easily recoverable materials in the acetylation of alcohols and phenols to their corresponding acetyl compounds using acetic anhydride under mild and solvent-less conditions. The supported iron oxide nanoparticles could be easily recovered from the reaction mixture and reused ten times without any loss in activity.

experimental part, p. 637 - 644 (2011/03/21)
Direct transformation of structurally different epoxides to the corresponding 1,2-diacetates was studied with catalytic amounts of NaBH 4, LiAlH4, CaH2, and NaH. The reactions were carried out in refluxing acetic anhydride within 1.5-2.5h to give vic-diacetates in good to excellent yields. Conversion of R-(+)-styrene oxide to S-(+)-1,2-diacetoxy-1-phenylethane was carried out with good yield and stereospecificity with the NaBH4/Ac2O system at 0°C.

Organic ammonium tribromide (OATB), N-methylpyrrolidine-2-one hydrotribromide (MPHT) was found to be an efficient catalyst for the regioselective ring opening of epoxides with various nucleophiles under solvent free conditions. This procedure occurs under neutral and mild reaction conditions with out adding any additive and afforded high yields of products.
A green protocol for catalytic conversion of epoxides to 1,2-diacetoxy esters with phosphomolybdic acid alone or its supported on silica gel
Zeynizadeh, Behzad,Sadighnia, Leila
experimental part, p. 2644 - 2648 (2010/12/25)
Catalytic conversion of structurally different epoxides to the corresponding 1,2-diacetoxy esters was carried out readily with phosphomolybdic acid alone or its supported on SiO2. The reactions were carried out under solvolytic or solvent free conditions within 5-15 min at room temperature. The product 1,2-diacetates were obtained in high to excellent yields. Supporting of phosphomolybdic acid on SiO2 showed the better catalytic activity than Al2O3. Conversion of optically pure R-(+)-styrene oxide to S-(+)-1,2-diacetoxy-1-phenylethane was carried with phosphomolybdic acid in high yield and stereospecificity.

Acetylation of various alcohols and phenols was performed successfully using an immobilized cobalt(II) catalyst in high yield. The catalyst shows high thermal stability and was also recovered and reused at least 10 times without any considerable loss of activity.
