Oxiranes are more reactive than open chain ethers

Oxiranes, commonly known as epoxides, exhibit higher reactivity compared to open-chain ethers due to their ring strain and angle strain. These reactive properties stem from the strained three-membered ring structure of the oxirane molecule.

The bond angles in an oxirane are considerably smaller than the ideal tetrahedral angle of around 109.5 degrees. In contrast, the carbon–oxygen–carbon bond angle in an oxirane is approximately _______ _________ ____ ______ _______ _________ ___ __________ ___ _______.
