Some thermodynamic parameters of radicals Radical initiators
Vitamine E tames radicals Ketyl Radicals
ketyl radical anion in aprotic solvents pinacol reaction
McMurry reaction observed only if the reaction is carried out at low temperature
the energy to be gained by pairing up the two electrons in the radical reaction step more than compensates for the strain that may be generated in forming the ring Carbon-carbon bond formation with radicals
initiation propagation
What has something to do with each radical's selectivity? # bond strength: Sn-C bond is relatively weak # the rate constant of R・with Bu3SnH is about the same as that for reaction with CH2=CHCN: should be [CH2=CHCN] > 10 x [Bu3SnH] , which, however, causes problems with side reactions. Therefore,Bu3SnH should be added very slowly. # # reactivity of starting alkyl halide: RBr or RI (relatively reactive) not RCl (too unreactive) hn
