Abstract
The effect of the aromatic ring substituents on the product distribution of the gas-phase acid-induced ring opening of benzocondensed epoxides 2a and 2b with MeOH was examined and compared with results from methanolysis. The observed syn/anti diastereoselectivity is strictly dependent on the type of the aromatic ring substituent (6-OCH3 or 7-Br), and a very satisfactory Hammett-type linear correlation was found for both epoxides. A razionalization of the results is given.File in questo prodotto:
