Abstract
The regiochemical control of the ring opening of epoxides bearing pola r remote functionalities, through chelation process assisted by metal ions, was verified in the title compound (4). The use of metal assiste d procedures is several ring opening reactions of 4 leads to a modific ation of the regiochemical outcome, and the attack of the nucleophile on the C-4 oxirane carbon is highly favored.
