Abstract

The remarkable catalytic activity of BiCl 3 /SiO 2 for the ring-opening of epoxides with aromatic and aliphatic amines under microwave and thermal heating was observed. This eco-friendly heterogeneous catalyst displayed high to excellent regioselectivity in the synthesis of β-amino alcohols under solvent-free conditions. High turnover frequency (TOF) values under microwave heating and excellent reusability of the catalyst may significantly contribute to applied chemistry. BiCl 3 /SiO 2 catalyzed regioselective ring-opening of epoxides with aromatic and aliphatic amines.
