DRAFT DEFINITION
McLafferty rearrangement

β Cleavage with concomitant specific transfer of a gamma-hydrogen atom in a six-membered transition state in mono-unsaturated systems, irrespective of whether the rearrangement is formulated by a radical or an ionic mechanism, and irrespective of the position of the charge.

Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission

Orange Book Entry

This is an example of a rearrangement reaction and is defined as β - cleavage with concomitant specific transfer of a γ - hydrogen atom in a six-membered transition state in mono-unsaturated systems, irrespective of whether the rearrangement is formulated by a radical or by an ionic mechanism and irrespective of with which fragment the charge stays.

Gold Book Entry

β-Cleavage with concomitant specific transfer of a γ-hydrogen atom in a six-membered transition state in mono-unsaturated systems, irrespective of whether the rearrangement is formulated by a radical or an ionic mechanism, and irrespective of the position of the charge.
