Abstract

The activation parameters of the reactions between a superoxide anion (O2·−) and alkyl bromides are measured. An ab initio study of the transition states for various mechanisms of this reaction is performed. The mechanism of radical separation in a polar solvent becomes competitive upon an increase in the number of alkyl groups in an alkyl bromide molecule and depends on their arrangement relative to a reaction center.
