Abstract
The resonance stabilization energies, Es, of polyenyl radicals can be estimated by the equation Es(N)=−13.2+[3.95–15.8(2) −2/n] kcal mol−1, where N is the number of C, C-π bonds in the polyenyl radicals. This correlation has been extended for predicting the weakest HC, CC and COH bond dissociation energies in vitamin A and similar compounds.
