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 conditions.
