How Rapidly Do Epoxides Nonspecifically Form Covalent Bonds with Thiols in Water

Rating reaction rates. Due to some concerns about the reactivity of epoxides towards the most abundant and powerful nucleophiles, thiols, in a biological setting, we report kinetic data for the consumption of five common epoxide motifs in the presence of a thiol under biologically relevant condition...
