Science of Synthesis

Kostikov, R. R.; Khlebnikov, A. F.; Sokolov, V. V., Science of Synthesis, (2010) 47, 813.

The pyrolysis of esters is an excellent method for alkene synthesis because of the ready accessibility of esters (especially acetates), the ease of carrying out the pyrolysis, the high yield and purity of the products, and the lack of rearrangements. On the basis of the stereochemical outcome of the reaction, a concerted syn elimination with a six-electron aromatic transition state has been suggested (‌Scheme 26‌) (see also Houben–Weyl, Vol. 5/1b, pp 105–130).[‌153‌]
