    Rates of reaction of methoxide ion with crown ethers bearing an intra-annular acetoxy group are markedly enhanced by alkali and alkaline-earth metal bromides as a result of much stronger interactions of the metal ions with transition states than with reactants.\ud \ud Rates of reactions of methoxide ion with crown ethers bearing an intra-annular acetoxy group markedly enhanced by alkali and alkaline-earth metal bromides as a result of much stronger interactions of the metal ion with transition state than with reactants
