51. 2, or HMPA, the allylic mercury intermediate was the only product isolated. The generation of this species appears to be rapid in all media. The ensuing step in which Hg(II) is reduced to Hg(0) is believed to be the rate-determining step. If so, the role of nonpolar benzene is to stabilize the transition state and accelerate the overall rate.
