In contrast to 2-bromo-1, 3-butadiene (5), the di-, tri- and tetramethyl derivatives 6–11 show remarkable solvolytic reactivity. First order rate constants and products of these bromodienes in 80% ethanol have been determined. Rates are very sensitive to the ionising power of the solvent but are not affected by triethylamine. Three types of products are formed, i.e. alkenynes, α,β-unsaturated ketones and 4-ethoxyallenes.
One methyl group on C-4 of 5 increases the reaction rate by a factor of ca. 102; two methyl groups increase the rate by ca. 104. Methyl substituents at C-1 have only a slight influence, apparently as a result of a rate-decreasing polar effect and a compensating rate-increasing steric effect.
The results of this study are consistent with a unimolecular ionization mechanism involving a mesomeric vinyl cation 12a 12b as an intermediate.
