abstract

  • AbstractThermolysis of 2‐acetoxy‐2‐methoxy‐5,5‐dimethyl‐Δ3‐1,3,4‐oxadiazoline affords acetoxy(methoxy)carbene. Thermal rearrangement of acetoxy(methoxy)carbene to methyl pyruvate is a concerted 1,2‐migration, avoiding a potential radical‐pair mechanism. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
