Oxiranes and aziridines efficiently undergo ring opening with bismuth nitrate at room temperature to furnish the corresponding β ‐(nitrooxy)‐substituted alcohols and amines respectively. The conversions are highly regio‐ and stereoselective and afford the nitrooxy‐compounds in excellent yields within a short period of time.
