Rearrangement to Electron Deficient Carbon Migratory aptitude : Ph> R, H The migratory aptitude of phenyl group increases with electron donating groups Generation of Carbonium ion
Pinacole-Pinacolone Rearrangement
Benzilic acid rearrangement  -Diketones undergo a rearrangement when treated with hydroxide ion, giving  -hydroxyacids.
Rearrangement to Electron-deficient Nitrogen Hofmann rearrangement-  A carboxylic acid amide is treated with sodium hypobromite, or bromine in alkali.  The N-bromo-amide is formed and reacts with the base to give its conjugate base within which rearrangement occurs.
