Substituent migration is observed only to a minor extent during aromatization of the 1,2-oxide of methyl phenylacetate to methyl (o-hydroxyphenyl)acetate; the major aromatization pathway does not involve substituent migration. Substituent migration is not observed during aromatization of the 1,2-oxide of methyl trans-cinnamate to methyl o-coumarate.
