Abstract
A computational study on the intermolecular reaction of protonated oxirane with methylpropene, as a model for initiation of oxidosqualene cyclisation, shows that the SN2-like ring opening is strongly exothermic with a low barrier to reaction and establishes the geometry of the intermolecular reaction.
