The reaction of a series of alkynes with mercury(II)acetate, both in equimolar and catalytic amounts, were investigated in methanol.Hex-1-yne, oct-1-yne, oct-4-yne, 1,4-diacetoxybut-2-yne, methyl oct-2-ynoate, methyl 3-phenylpropynoate, oct-2-ynoic acid, phenylpropynoic acid, oct-1-yn-3-ol, 1-ethynylcyclohexanol, 1-ethynylcyclohexamine, phenylethyne, diphenylethyne, and ethynylferrocene were the examined substrates.The non-mercuriated products from the reaction were the corresponding vinyl ether, dialkoxyalkane, and ketone, isolated under preparative conditions.The presence of 0.1percent toluene-p-sulphonic acid increased the reactivity.The reactions of oct-1-yne and oct-4-yne were studied in detail by following with time the formation of the products under a variety of conditions, and a mechanistic scheme was drawn.For comparison, styrene, trans-oct-4-ene, and trans-β-methylstyrene were treated with 5 molpercent mercury(II) acetate.The reaction of alkenes was found to be non-catalytic.
The Allopolarization Principle and its Applications, IV. Substituent Effects in the Methylation of Enolate Anions

The ratio of O- and C-methylated products in the reaction of the sodium salts of acetophenones 1, propiophenones 3, phenylacetones 5, β-dicarbonyl compounds 12, α-cyanocarbonyl compounds 13, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde, and diethylketone with dimethyl sulfate, methyl iodide, and trimethyl phosphate in HMPTA has been determined with regard to the effect of substituents.In some cases the influence of solvents, concentration and temperature has also been studied.
