Polarimetric studies on camphor (2) as well as IR studies on crotonaldehyde (CA;1) and benzonitrile (BN;3) confirm the conclusion of a previously published NMR study on crotonaldehyde that lithium perchlorate (LP) weakly binds to probe bases in diethyl ether (DE). The weak binding is a consequence of the fact that the lithium ion (actually the LP ion pair and higher aggregates), a powerful Lewis acid in the gas phase, competitively binds to ether and the added base. Methylene camphor (5), (E)-1,3-pentadiene (4), camphene, and phenylacetylene (6) do not bind to LP in DE. Shifts to lower energy of the C=O modes of CA in ether solutions containing increasing amounts of LP are consistent with moderate increases in solvent polarity. Only small or no shifts are seen in the C≡N modes of BN and its 1:1 complex with added LP. Because the C≡N and especially C=O modes are blue shifted under external applied pressure, the large internal pressures of LP/DE do not mimic external applied pressure. Likewise, the small or no changes observed in λ(max) for the absorption and emission spectra of anthracene (9) and azulene (8) in ether as a function of LP concentration do not conform to what is observed under external applied pressure. Studies of the Diels-Alder reaction of (E)-1,3-pentadiene with methyl acrylate show that the reaction is entirely catalyzed in LP/DE; polarity and internal pressure do not influence product selectivity in this reaction.

Trans-o-4-Menthen-8-ol and cis- and trans-o-5-menthen-8-ols have been prepared via the Diels-Alder reactions of 1,3-butadiene with crotonaldehyde in the presence of boron trifluoride etherate, and piperylene with methyl acrylate, respectively.The dehydration reactions of these alcohols have been studied in the presence of acetic anhydride and potassium bisulfate; the latter reagent demonstrates a high reaction selectivity.
