Application of N-thiocyanatosuccinimide as a reagent for the facile conversion of epoxides into thiocyanohydrines

The use of in situ generated N-thiocyanatosuccinimide with NH4SCN offers an efficient reagent system for the conversion of epoxides into their corresponding thiocyanohydrines in good to high yields. The major advantages of this method are as follows: use of cheap reagent, high regioselectivity, simp...
