Critical energies for 1,3‐R sigmatropic migrations (RH, OH, CH 3 and C 6 H 5 ) have been calculated by means of the MINDO/3 method. This investigation was carried out for the system [RCH 2 CHCH 2 ] +˙ and the results indicated that hydroxyl group migration is energetically favoured (critical energy = 53 kJ mol −1 ). Calculations are also presented for [3‐buten‐2‐ol] +˙ isomerizations. The lowest energy pathway is related to the [2‐buten‐1‐ol] +˙ ; the corresponding critical energy for OH migration is equal to 33 kJ mol −1 in this case.
