Abstract

BY EDWARD SHERMAN'AND ED AMSTUTZ a-Furfuryl chloride is an interesting substance because of the various factors which contribute to its unique chemical characteristics. Thus it possesses the simple allylic structure, an extended allylic system and the P-halogen ether grouping. In order better to understand the contributions of these various systems toward the chemical behavior of the molecule in reaction we undertook the study of the isomeric ...
