The kinetics of the bimolecular self‐reaction of t‐butyl radicals in solution. II. Disproportionation/combination ratios

Abstract: SummaryDisproportionation/combination ratios Pd/Pc of self-reacting t-butyl radicals are determined as a function of solvent and temperature. The observed large solvent and temperature dependences are ascribed to anisotropic reorientational motions of the radicals during their encounter in the solvent cage. Results for other alkyl radicals are compatible with this concept.

“…The observed cage effect on the Disp / Comb selectivity can be explained by considering the spin state of the radical pair, namely, the spin correlation effect, and the collision model originally proposed by Fischer and modified by us (Scheme ) . The spin state of the caged radical pair should be predominantly singlet while that of the encountered diffused pair is triplet.…”

“…The observed cage effect on the Disp/Comb selectivity can be explained by considering the spin state of the radical pair, namely,t he spin correlation effect, [24] andt he collisionm odel originally proposed by Fischer and modified by us (Scheme 3). [17,25] The spin state of the caged radicalp air should be predominantly singlet while that of the encountered dif-fused pair is triplet. For the diffused radicals, the triplet pair must undergo intersystem crossing to the singlett hrough a conicalp oint, in which the radical pairm ust take an orthogonal orientation.T he radical pair hast or earrange to thec ollinear orientation before undergoing the termination,a nd this change of radical configurationa ssociates the displacement and reorganization of the surrounding solvents.…”

“…They are 1.9 for (CH,),C+COOH, 1.5 for (CH,),C+COOCH3 and 0.3 for (CH,),CH+ COOH (CH,). Comparison with k d / k c z 3 for (CH,),C+ C(CH,), [29] and 0.65 for (CH,),CH+ HC (CH,), [30] reveals a diminution by a factor of 2 which is reasonable on statistical grounds.…”

“…The geminate reactions of recombination and disproportionation result in the restoration of the initial ketone RÀ COÀR and in the formation of aldehyde RÀCHO and alkene R(À H). The escaped acyl radicals undergo a fast decarbonylation reaction with the rate constant k CO = 2 · 10 7 s À1 for MP (a) [20] and k CO = 8 · 10 6 s À1 for MiB (b) [21]. The consequent bulk reactions of radical termination k t rise to the formation of products RÀR, RH, and R(À H).…”
