β¦ Synopsis
Secondary allylic acetates are the almost exclusive kinetically-controlled products formed in the oxidation of both l-and 2-olefins by Hg(OAcj2 in AcOH.~ Ape& of equilibrating primary and secondary allylic mercuric acetates, with the equilibrium being overwhelmingly on the side of the former were suggested as intermediates, based on the exclusive formation of a-methylally acetate in the solvolysis of crotyl-HgOAc. 3 The work of Wolfe and coworkers 4 on sllylic oxidation of allylbenzene prompts us to publish our

## Abstract Fluorescein mercuric acetate causes the unwinding of DNA and binds to the separated bases. This unwinding process can be followed by measuring absorption changes of this reagent. For untreated calf thymus DNA, the initial rate was very slow, and the shape of the kinetic curve was sigmoi
