Abstract

Abstract: Eight/3-allenic alcohols were synthesized and the tosylate and brosylate [3, 5- dinitrobenzoate (VIe) in the case of 2-methy1-4, 5-heptadien-2-01] of each prepared. The rates of acetolysis (hydrolysis in the case of VIe) were determined titrimetrically. Solvolysis products were isolated and their structures assigned on the basis of spectra and properties. Each compound studied except VIe, exhibited a significant ka (assisted solvolytic rate) ...
