Addition products of epoxides and compounds containing an active hydrogen atom are obtained by conducting the reaction in the homogeneous liquid phase, in the presence of a catalyst consisting of a perchlorate of a metal in a valency state at least equal to 3. Selectivity for the 1:1 adducts is thereby improved. Suitable active hydrogen compounds include alcohols, phenols, amines, carboxylic acids and water.
