✦ Synopsis


In contrat with general observation, two different types of experiments indicate that the abstraction of dydrogen atom of ether having proper conformarion is slightly enhanced by the oxygen atom in line with

our previous AMI calculation.

An electrondonating group such as alkoxy. alkylthio, and amino gmups is generally assumed to suppress the abstraction of a hydrogen atom attached to the same carbon, as exemplified by the polarity alternation rule (PAR).* The acidity of the hydrogen atom at the a-position is surmised to be incmased by the
