Reactions of oxiranes and carbonyl compounds catalyzed by ammonium decatungstocerate(IV)
Various types of oxiranes react with acetone in the presence of catalytic amounts of ammonium decatungstocerate(IV) icosahydrate, (NH4)(8) [CeW10O36].20H(2)O, to give the corresponding 1,3-dioxolanes in excellent yields.
