Epoxide, a cyclic ether, can be used to obtain important alcohols, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functional polymers. This transformation is facilitated by the reductive ring opening of epoxide.

Organic chemistry is the study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and preparation of carbon-containing compounds. Most organic compounds contain carbon and hydrogen, but they may ...

Epoxides belong to a class of organic compounds called “cyclic ethers” that are characterized by a three-atom ring. They are readily available compounds found in medicinal and agrochemical agents, as ...
