Allyl phenyl ether is prepared by the reaction of sodium phenoxide with allyl bromide: [1]. C 6 H 5 ONa + BrCH 2 CH=CH 2 → C 6 H 5 OCH 2 CH=CH 2 + NaBr. The yield is almost quantitative when the reaction is conducted in homogeneous solution using dimethoxyethane.
The Claisen rearrangement is a powerful carbon–carbon bond-forming chemical reaction discovered by Rainer Ludwig Claisen. [1] The heating of an allyl vinyl ether will initiate a [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement to give a γ,δ-unsaturated carbonyl, driven by exergonically favored carbonyl CO bond formation Δ(Δ f H) = −327 kcal/mol (−1,370 kJ/mol).
An example of Claisen rearrangement is the [3,3] rearrangement of an allyl vinyl ether, which upon heating yields a γ,δ-unsaturated carbonyl. The formation of a carbonyl group makes this reaction, unlike other sigmatropic rearrangements, inherently irreversible. The Claisen rearrangement
With certain allyl aryl ethers a competing reaction takes place. [5] The reaction of allyl phenyl ether 1 with sec-butyllithium at −78 °C gives the lithiated intermediate 2 which on heating to −25 °C only shows the rearranged product 5 but not 4 after trapping the lithium alkoxide with trimethylsilyl chloride.
ROCKFORD, Ill. (WTVO) – It’s been 34 years since Macaulay Culkin’s character, Kevin McCallister, made a trip to the supermarket for supplies in the 1990 Chris Columbus film “Home Alone ...

A variety of allylic ethers undergo the Wittig rearrangement—the fundamental requirement is the ability to generate the appropriate carbanion in the substrate. This demands either acidic hydrogens, a reducible functional group, or a carbon-metal bond. Historically, alkenyl, alkynyl, and phenyl groups have been used to acidify the α position ...
The Federal Reserve’s top banking regulator Michael Barr will step down from his position in February, saying that "the risk of a dispute over the position could be a distraction from our mission."
