33. It is difficult at this point to explain why aldehyde 6 undergoes the ODPM rearrangement while the analogous methyl ketone 22 does not. It will be necessary to carry out additional studies in order to establish the possible analogies and differences between the reactivity of β,γ-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones before giving a reasonable explanation for this observation.
