SOI catalyzes the Meinwald rearrangement, a Lewis-acid-catalyzed isomerization of aryl epoxides into aryl acetaldehydes. Aryl epoxides are valuable chemical precursors used in numerous industrial applications. Traditionally, converting aryl epoxides to carbonyl compounds requires harsh, corrosive chemicals and high temperatures, which result in product mixtures and environmental pollution. In contrast, SOI is highly stereospecific, making it a promising alternative for catalyzing this important reaction in industrial applications. | SOI catalyzes the Meinwald rearrangement, a Lewis-acid-catalyzed isomerization of aryl epoxides into aryl acetaldehydes.
