Abstract
Efficient conversion of epoxides into episulfides with thiourea in the presence of ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) as catalyst and under mild and non-aqueous conditions is reported; this conversion was performed under both conventional heating and microwave conditions and distinct rate enhancement was observed under microwave irradiation.
