Abstract

By MICHAEL HANACK* and WALTER HOLWEGER (Institut fur Organische Chemie, Universitat Tubingen, Auf der Morgenstelle 18, 0-7400 Tubingen, Germany) ... Suvnnzary The synthesis, separation, and solvolysis of the stereoisomeric dienynyl trifluoromethanesulphonates (1) are described, whereby the E-isomers, in contrast with the 2-isomers, rearrange to a remarkable extent to form the phenyl ethers (5) via the phenyl cations (2). ... RECENTLY we reported ...
