On γ-Al2O3, BPO4 and NaX zeolite, the dehydration of (+/-)-2,2,3,4,5,5-hexamethyloxolane (2) in the vapour phase leads to the formation of 2,3,4,5-tetramethyl-1,5-hexadiene (8) in a slow process, while meso-2,2,3,4,5,5-hexamethyloxolane (3) is converted to 2,3,4,5-tetramethyl-2,4-hexadiene (7) with high selectivity in a fast reaction.These differences in reaction rate and selectivity indicate that the dehydration of 2 takes place by an E2 mechanism.In contrast, the steric strain in 3 results in ring opening by an E1 mechanism.These conclusions are supported by the nonselective transformations of 2,2,5,5-tetramethyloxolane (1) and 2,2,6,6-tetramethyloxane (4), and the dehydration of 1, 2 and 3 in the presence of formic acid in the liquid phase.The experimental observation prove that both the reactivity and the reaction directions in the dehydration of stereoisomeric oxolanes are determined by steric factors.
