Abstract

Ortho substitution rearrangements of 2-substituted benzyltrimethylammonium ions and of the methiodides of the productP were found to take place not only when the substituent was methyl or ethyl as reported previously, but also when the substituent was methoxy or chlorine. Similar consecutive rearrangements were realized starting with 4-substituted benzyltrimethylammonium ions where the substituent waa methyl, isopropyl, methoxy, or ...
