Anyone know a reagent to accomplish this? Li based reagents probably won't work as the lewis acidic quality will weaken the epoxide C-O bonds. Any suggestions would be awesome!
eg. JACS, 2010, 132(, 2542 - 2543
G Barbe and A B Charette, J Am Chem Soc, 2008, 130, 18 describes a Hanztch pyridine style reduction, perhaps (don't have access to the full paper, sorry) http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/ja077463q
