A time-resolved, laser flash photolysis study of the reaction of a variety of carbon-centered radicals with Tempo (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl) at room temperature is reported. Some of the radicals examined and the corresponding measured rate constants (Mr's-') are CH3(CH2),CH2, 1.2 X lo9; (CH3)3C*, 7.6 X lo8; C6H5cH2, 4.9 X 10'; C6H&(CH3)2, 1.2 X 10' ; (C6H5)&CH3, 4.6 X 10'. Arrhenius parameters have also been determined for the n-nonyl and benzyl radicals.
