So if we have methyl group and cyclocompound...there is migration plus load (+) to methyl group? o.O
I must talk to my lecturer and ask him anyway ;)



(Edit: Suzie -> UWSteve is right :) Now I know why and how :) greets and thanks guys :))



Just look up "carbocation stability" in your book, and it should make perfect sense. Just remeber that tertiary > secondary > primary >> methyl :)

Glad I could help in some way, sorry my mechanism was wrong.
