Abstract

The kinetics of radical heterolysis reactions, including rate constants for radical cation-anion contact ion pair formation, collapse of the contact pair back to the parent radical, and separation of the contact pair to a solvent-separated ion pair or free ions were obtained in several solvents for a beta-mesyloxy radical. Rate constants were determined from indirect kinetic studies using thiophenol as both a radical trapping agent via H-atom transfer and an alkene radical cation trapping agent via electron transfer. [reaction: see text].
