Amberlyst 15 is an efficient catalyst for the reaction of aryl‐substituted oxiranes with acetone to prepare 2,2‐dimethyl‐1,3‐dioxolanes in high yields. trans‐2,3‐Diaryloxiranes afford trans‐acetonides enantiospecifically at room temperature, and the use of enantiopure 2,3‐diaryloxiranes results in no loss of stereochemical integrity in the resulting trans‐acetonides.
