Abstract

R-CHz-CHz-COO rearrangement products, and/or reaction with solvent, etc. acid, the series comprised of phenylacetic, diphenylacetic, mesitylacetic, and 2, 4, 6-triisopropylphenylacetic acids was studied. For each acid, the total carbon dioxide evolved was measured, and the isolable products were characterized. In addition, qualitative tests for carbon monoxide4 were made. The solvent used for each acid was dimethylformamide. Electrolyses carried ...
