The elimination of carbon monoxide from acid derivatives. Part III. Planar carbonium ions as necessary intermediates

Abstract
Elimination of carbon monoxide from acid chlorides by the Friedel-Crafts reaction is precluded if the resulting carbonium ions are restricted to non-planar geometry by bicyclic or other structures with a rigid molecular framework. In such cases the normal ketones are obtained.
