fact, coupled with simple and mild reaction conditions (use of protic or Lewis acid
such as SnCl 4 in nitromethane or dichloromethane as the solvent), has prompted the use
of this rearrangement in the synthesis of variously substituted annulated polycyclic
ethers of biological interest, such as briarellin F [140], (

Deacetoxyalcyonin acetate was also synthesized using a Prins-pinacol rearrangement
staring from ( S )-carvone [145] (Scheme 8.25). This synthesis was later optimized by
Overman and Pennington [144].
The Prins-pinacol rearrangement can also involve iminium species. The so-
called aza-Prins-pinacol rearrangement was used by Armstrong and Shanahan [146]
in their synthesis of 7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane ring system present in epibatidine, an
alkaloid with high biological and pharmacological interest [147] (Scheme 8.26).

TheWittig rearrangement comprises the thermal [1,2]-rearrangement of an aryl alkyl
ether to the corresponding secondary or tertiary alcohol, which was discovered by
