The fate of the external methylene Carbon atom of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol in the rearrangement to dihydropan.
Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University === When tertrahydrofurfuryl alchohol is passed over alumina at temperatures between 300 and 360 degrees celcius a unique rearrangement occurs. Instead of a simple dehydration of the alcohol, a ring expansion is observed. The product is dihydropyran. If it is assume...
