However, solvolysis of deuterium-Iabeled ethyl toluene-p-sulfonate in fluorosulfuric acid yields a product with 30-40 % rearrangement,24 and it is possible that a bridged ion is an intermediate in this reaction. It has also been found that when C0 3 CH zF is allowed to react with excess SbF 5-S02, FS0 3 H-SbF S-S02, or HF-SbF S-S02 at - 78'C rapid deuterium scrambling occurS. 25 If such solutions are quenched with cyclohexane or cyclohexane-d 12 , the resulting ethane has the deuterium completely randomized.
