A conceptually distinct approach to the aminolysis of 1,2-epoxides, which involves Lewis base-Bronsted acid catalysis employing N-formyl-L-proline as an easily accessible bifunctional organocatalyst and water as a solvent is presented. The potential of N-formyl-L-proline as organocatalyst for the sulfide oxidation reaction using aqueous hydrogen peroxide as environmentally benign and readily available oxidant is also demonstrated. Good to high yields are achieved for both reactions.
