INVESTIGATIONS IN THE BICYCLOHEPTANE SERIES: PART I. THE ELECTRONIC EFFECT OF METHYL GROUPS ON C6 OF THE NORBORNYL CATION

The addition of acetic acid to camphenilene has been carried out. The major products are the two expected from normal addition without rearrangement. From the product ratio it is possible to conclude that the difference between the electronic effect of a methyl and a hydrogen at C 6 of the norbornyl...

Description
Summary:The addition of acetic acid to camphenilene has been carried out. The major products are the two expected from normal addition without rearrangement. From the product ratio it is possible to conclude that the difference between the electronic effect of a methyl and a hydrogen at C 6 of the norbornyl cation is small.
