Acid induced cationic rearrangements of carbocyclic compounds

This thesis examines fluorosulfonic acid as a reagent for use in organic synthesis. The acid strength of fluorosulfonic acid gives access to rearrangement products not available with weaker acids. The reaction of a selected series of benzyl carbinols with HSO₃F are reported. Reaction of 1-benzyl-2...
