Analysis shows dyotropic rearrangement impacts electron flow in 1,2-dibromoethane, suggesting new pathways.
In the previous post, I discussed what we could learn from ethane by forcing it into a pericyclic dyotropic rearrangement. We saw how it voraciously scavenged two electrons from the C-C bond to achieve this. What if we give it more electrons? Thus 1,2-dibromoethane undergoing the same reaction.
