title: Design of thermally stable versions of the burgess reagent: stability and reactivity study.
abstract: Three new versions of the Burgess reagent were synthesized and their thermal stability investigated by NMR. The new reagents exhibited improved reactivity toward epoxides, diols, and vinyl oxiranes as compared with the original version.
