Abstract
The reaction of 4-tert-butyl-4-penten-1-ol 3 with some electrophilic reagen ts (such as mineral acids, mercuric acetate, peracids) has been investigate d. It is found that in the acid (H2SO4) catalysed reaction of 3, the produc ts of 1,2-methyl rearrangement are produced. The oxymercuration/demercurati on reaction of 3 and its reaction with meta-chloroperbenzoic acid afford in high yields exclusively Markovnikov-type products.
