Which reaction intermediate (A or B) is more likely to form in the epoxide ring opening reaction? Reactions prefer to react through lower energy intermediates. Hint: how might you justify one structure being lower in energy than the other? Draw structures as part of your explanation why. epoxide ring opening Structure A OH Structure B :OH +
