Abstract

Compounds I and I1 and other adducts of related structure have been found to undergo some interesting nucleophilic displacement reactions which frequently are accompanied by allylic rearrangement. 6 The present paper describes much of this work-specifically the displacement reactions of I and I1 with ethanolic potassium hydroxide and with phenyllithiurn.
