Abstract
Effective hydrolysis of epoxides and aziridines was conducted by heating them in water at 60 or 100 °C. Other types of nucleophile such as amines, sodium azide, and thiophenol could also efficiently open epoxides and aziridines in hot water. It was proposed that hot water acted as a modest acid catalyst, reactant, and solvent in the hydrolysis reactions.

Oxidation of Cyclohexene to trans-1,2-Cyclohexanediol Promoted by p-Toluenesulfonic Acid without Organic Solvents
Andreia A. Rosatella, Carlos A. M. Afonso, and Luís C. BrancoJournal of Chemical Education2011 88 (7), 1002-1003Oxidation of Cyclohexene to trans-1,2-Cyclohexanediol Promoted by p-Toluenesulfonic Acid without Organic Solvents
Andreia A. Rosatella, Carlos A. M. Afonso, and Luís C. BrancoJournal of Chemical Education2011 88 (7), 1002-1003This experiment describes a method for cyclohexene oxidation to trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol using p-toluenesulfonic acid (p-TsOH) as promoter and hydrogen peroxide as oxidant in a biphasic system. This method allows conversions up to 97.9% (monitored by 1H ...

K. C. Nicolaou, Jae Hong Seo, Tsuyoshi Nakamura, and Robert J. AversaJournal of the American Chemical Society2011 133 (2), 214-219A devised biomimetic strategy toward the C′D′E′F′ domain (6) of maitotoxin (1) led to hydroxy triepoxide 8 as a postulated polyepoxide precursor. However, all attempts to induce the desired cascade to form the targeted compound through a zip-type reaction ...
