The reactions have been studied by a mass-balance method involving the photolysis of small amounts of biacetyl in the presence of a large excess of isobutane containing a small proportion of the unsaturated substrate. The following Arrhenius parameters have been derived: Temperature Reaction E log A
**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 ϱ values. Alkyl radicals R^˙^ are accordingly seen to develop nucleophilic properties during addition to olefins. equation image
The reaction of methyl radicals (Me) with hexafluoroacetone (HFA), generated from ditertiary butyl peroxide (dtBP), was studied over the temperature range of 402-433 K and the pressure range of 38-111 torr. The reaction resulted in the following displacement process taking place: where TFA refers t
