Abstract
Glycidic acids containing a-methyl or ethyl groups yield ketones on decarboxylation. One would expect other a-substituted glycidic acids to react similarly. However, Darzens3 reported that aldehydes were obtained from the decarboxylation of several substituted glycidic acids containing an-decyl groups. It was stated that the pyrolysis products gave positive aldehyde color reactions and that a migration of the decyl group must have taken ...
