title: Solvolysis of a tetrahydropyranyl mesylate: mechanistic implications for the Prins cyclization, 2-oxonia-cope rearrangement, and Grob fragmentation.
abstract: [reaction: see text] A solvolysis reaction is used to demonstrate that a tetrahydropyranyl cation is a common intermediate for Prins cyclizations, 2-oxonia-Cope rearrangements, and Grob fragmentations of tetrahydropyran rings.
