Abstract
Electronically deactivated and/or sterically hindered substrates undergo the Newman-Kwart rearrangement (NKR) at around 300°C using modern microwave technology. In addition, several previously reported difficult examples were re-investigated, and the NKR under the reported conditions was found to be a reliable and high yielding reaction.
