Abstract
Abstract By careful exclusion of oxygen, carbon radicals, generated from the W lamp photolysis of O -acyl derivatives of N -hydroxy-2-thiopyridone, can be added efficiently to methylvinyl ketone. Extension to the radical from pent-4-enoic acid provides another synthesis of cyclopentane derivatives. Analogous additions with other electrophilic olefins are also reported.
