This chapter illustrates recent developments of acid-catalyzed Meinwald and semipinacol rearrangements of epoxides. The oxiranes can be elaborated under different reaction conditions, involving the use of Brønsted acids, Lewis acids derived from the main group, transition metal complexes, including heterogeneous Lewis acids. More challenging asymmetric rearrangement of epoxides and selected examples of this transformation occurring in the synthesis of bioactive and natural products will be highlighted.

Abstract
This chapter illustrates recent developments of acid-catalyzed Meinwald and semipinacol rearrangements of epoxides. The oxiranes can be elaborated under different reaction conditions, involving the use of Brønsted acids, Lewis acids derived from the main group, transition metal complexes, including heterogeneous Lewis acids. More challenging asymmetric rearrangement of epoxides and selected examples of this transformation occurring in the synthesis of bioactive and natural products will be highlighted.File in questo prodotto:
