Abstract
We describe the development of the first ring opening of epoxides using pendant sulfamates and sulfamides. These reactions are promoted by a base and proceed under mild conditions to afford oxathiazinanes and cyclic sulfamides with excellent diastereoselectivity and regiocontrol. The reactions scale well, and the products serve as synthons for ring-opening reactions.
