Reaction of allylic, benzylic and tertiary alkyl halides with zinc oxide in protic solvents leads to the formation of the corresponding alcohols, ethers and esters in good yields.The scope and limitations of this reaction have been examined.The possible involvement of ion quadruplets in the reaction is suggested.
