Abstract

The results of theoretical and experimental studies related to α-oxy(oxo)radicals are analyzed and generalized. The electronic structure, the effect of a medium on the electronic and spatial structure and the mechanisms of oxidation, α-and β-fragmentation, and isomerization reactions of radicals from various classes of oxygen-containing compounds (alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, acetals, and bifunctional and polyfunctional compounds) are considered. The mechanism of these reactions is based on two-orbital three-electron interaction in the >·C-O-and-·C =0 moieties of the above radicals.
