A facile and effective system has been developed for the regio- and chemoselective ring-opening/electrophilic functionalization of cyclopropanes through C-C bond activation by [bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodo]benzene with the aid of the Lewis basic promoter p-toluenesulfonamide. The p-toluenesulfonamide-promoted system works well for a wide range of cyclopropanes, resulting in the formation of 1,3-diol products in good yields and regioselectivity.
