Abstract
The mechanism of succinyl transfer from aryl enolsuccinates to the eno lates of aryl ketones has been studied by deuterium exchange experimen ts and semi-empirical calculations. The calculations indicate that dir ect elimination is favoured over the ene mechanism, The results of a d euterium labelling study were also inconsistent with the ene mechanism .
