Preparation of vicinal halohydrins, in which copper or iron chlorides catalyze the ring-opening reaction of epoxides with visible light effectively, is described. The use of trichloroacetonitrile as a halogen source enables catalytic HCl generation under the mild conditions. This method can also be applied to the aziridine ring-opening reaction.

experimental part, p. 231 - 236 (2009/12/03)
A new method is described for the mild and high regioselective conversion of epoxides to β-chlcrohydrins in high yields even in the presence of alcohols, carboxylic acids, oximes, amides, thiols and tetrahydropyranyl ethers using chlorodiphenylphosphine (ClPPh2) under solvent-free and neutral conditions at room temperature and in short reaction times. In addition, some other functional groups such as carbon-carbon double bonds, ester groups and also phenyl ring that are present in the epoxide molecules remain intact in this method.

2,4,6-Trichloro-1,3,5-triazine (TCT, cyanuric chloride) was found to mediate the regio- and stereoselective ring opening of epoxides in H 2O in the presence of morpholine at room temperature to afford the corresponding β-chlorohydrins in excellent yields (Table). The transformation is very simple, fast, efficient, and ecologically beneficial.
