A UNIQUE AND HIGHLY REMARKABLE BORON TRIFLUORIDE CATALYZED REARRANGEMENT OF 2,2-DI-t-BUTYLOXIRANE INTO 2,2,3,3,4,4-HEXAMETHYLTETRAHYDROFURAN

The boron trifluoride catalyzed rearrangement of 2,2-di-t-butyloxirane, involving competitive reactions of transient carbenium ions, could be selectively directed towards either 2,2,3,3,4,4-hexamethyltetrahydrofuran or 2-t-butyl-2,3-dimethyl-3-buten-1-ol.Hydride shift to afford 2,2-di-t-butylacetaldehyde was only observed to a minor extent.
