Abstract

Results A. Cyclooctyl System. In the preliminary communicationlb it was speculated that the homoallylic bromo ketal 18 (produced by the elimination of hydrogen bromide from dibromo ketal la) ionized under the very polar reaction conditions to the homoallylic carbonium ion 19 and its cyclopropylcarbinyl counterpart 20. Rearrangement of
