Abstract
The reaction of NaBH2S3 with epoxides gives symmetrical bis-(2-hydroxyethyl) disulfides. The stereochemistry of the reaction is similar to the attack of H2S on the epoxides in basic solution. Substituted epoxides are opened from the less hindered side. The reaction proceeds with good yield and is general. An improved method of preparation of the 1,2-mercaptols is presented.
