Tetrahedron report 1144Recent advances in the transformations of cycloalkane-fused oxiranes and aziridines

This account highlights the most relevant transformations of cycloalkane-fused oxiranes and aziridines developed during the past decade with the intention to provide an overview of the ring-opening synthetic techniques towards different functionalized cycloalkanes in racemic or enantiomerically pure form. It focuses also on the regioselectivity/regiocontrol and enantioselectivity of ring-opening methodologies including unsymmetrical cycloalkane-fused oxiranes and aziridines.
