Abstract
WE have extended our investigations1 on the acyl migration reaction N6666666 O to acyl derivatives of diastereoisomeric alicyclic amino-alcohols2, such as 2-amino-cyclohexanol3, with the view of establishing the relative steric positions4 (that is, configuration) of hydroxyl and acylamido groups.
