Abstract
Er(OTf)3 is proposed as a highly efficient and reusable catalyst for the opening of epoxides in water with aliphatic as well as aromatic amines leading to the synthesis of β-amino alcohols. The aqueous conditions employed in the present method will make it 'environmentally friendly' and potentially useful for industrial applications.
