Kinetics of alcoholysis of β,β-dimethylacryloyl chloride

Rate constants and activation parameters have been determined for alcoholysis of β,β-dimethylacryloyl chloride with 14 alcohols in benzene at a reactant ratio of 1:1. The reaction proceeds via formation of H-complex or charge-transfer complex. Appropriate description of the effect of alcohol on the reaction rate requires simultaneous application of the Hammett-Taft and Koppel'-Pal'm equations.

ETUDE DE LA REACTION CHLOROCARBENE-ACETALS DE CETENES. I. SYNTHESE D'ESTERS α,β-ETHYLENIQUES.

The reaction of chloro, chloromethyl and chlorophenyl carbenoids with ketene alkylsilylacetals has been studied.Excellent yields of cyclopropanation were observed and the unstable chlorocyclopropanone acetals formed were thermally rearranged in high yield into α-substituted α,β-ethylenic esters.This new method for the synthesis of unsaturated esters appeared complementary of the known-ones.
