Meyer-Schuster Rearrangement; Rupe Rearrangement
K. H. Meyer, K. Schuster, Ber. 55, 819 (1922); H. Rupe, E. Kambli, Helv. Chim. Acta 9, 672 (1926).
Acid-catalyzed rearrangement of secondary and tertiary α-acetylenic alcohols to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds: aldehydes result when the acetylenic group is terminal, ketones when it is internal:
The conversion of tertiary alkylacetylenic carbinols with a terminal acetylenic group to predominantly α,β-unsaturated ketones and not the expected aldehydes, is referred to as the Rupe rearrangement:
