Rearrangement of trisubstituted epoxides has been effected under the influence of various Lewis acids. Among these, methylaluminum bis(4-bromo-2,6-di-tert-butylphenoxide) (MABR) can be selectively rearranged from trisubstituted epoxides to aldehydes, while antimony pentafluoride is employable for selective rearrangement to ketones under mild conditions.
