Zn/CeCl3.7H(2)O-TBPB: A new and'Green' promoter system for rapid and regioselective thiolyzation of 1,2-epoxides with aryl Disulfides
A new, efficient, clean, and regioselective 'one-pot' procedure for thiolyzation of epoxides with aryl disuffides catalyzed by cerium(III) chloride heptahydrate immobilized on tetrabutyl phosphonium bromide as an ionic liquid is reported.
