Popis: | The distribution of methylcyclopentane (MCP) ring enlargement (RE) products between benzene (Bz) and cyclohexane (CH) provides information on the reaction mechanism. The Bz/CH ratio is in excess of the calculated and experimentally determined equilibrium ratio. This implies that benzene is a primary product; it eliminates the possibility of direct hydride ion transfer to carbenium ions as the prevailing mechanism. The results are consistent with the concept that metal-proton adducts are instrumental in bifunctional catalysis. |
