Popis: Regioselective ring opening of aliphatic and aromatic epoxides with nitrogen heterocycles such as indoles and imidazoles was accelerated using an ultrasonic technique as a green approach. An optimized procedure with the catalyst of choice, MCM-41, represents a real alternative to the conventional reaction protocols owing to the catalyst recyclability, simplicity, green conditions and time-saving aspects.
