Abstract
Acylation of alkenes with branching at the allylic carbon provides a preparative route to cyclic carboxonium salts. Such salts can be prepared by protonation ofβ, γ-unsaturated ketones —the products of acylation of unbranched alkenes. We have examined the mechanism of acylation of acylium salts.
