## Abstract The addition of methoxy radicals to several olefins has been studied by a competitive method at 127Β°C in gas phase. The thermal decomposition of dimethyl peroxide was used as methoxy radical source. The rate of addition to the double bond was measured relative to the oxidation of carbon

**The presence of a negative partial charge on the benzylic carbon atom in the transition state** __(1)__ can be deduced from the experimentally determinable Hammett Ο± values. Alkyl radicals R^Λ^ are accordingly seen to develop nucleophilic properties during addition to olefins. equation image
Regiochemical trends in the addition of free radicals to substituted olefins are investigated by different quantum chemical approaches with special reference to oxygen centered radicals. From a methodological point of view, density functional methods provide correct general trends but they do not re
