 | | The extent of beta-hydroxyolefin cleavage, which leads to formation of acrolein and allene, was independent of residence time in the thermolysis zone but increased with temperature, indicative of a higher activation energy than the competing rearrangement processes. |
 | | The effects of alkyl, pH, and vinyl substituents, and relative rate comparisons with the reaction of analogous olefins, are in accord with a planar transition state for the participation of the triple bond. |
 | | The co- thermolysis of hexa-1,5-dien-3-ol and 1 afforded a 1.65 rate ratio with a 0.13 mean deviation. |
