Tandem reactions of oxiranylcarbinyl radicals
thesis
posted on 2017-10-27, 08:51 authored by John A. RudderhamThe work described in this thesis is an investigation into the reactivity and possible
synthetic applications of oxiranylcarbinyl radicals. These radicals rapidly rearrange via β-cleavage,
which can proceed by breakage of either the C-O or the C-C bond. Cleavage of
the latter only occurs when the molecule has a vinyl or phenyl stabilising group attached to
the epoxide ring. [Continues.]
