Gasphase thermolysis of ketone 1 leads to title diradical 3, which in the presence of oxygen yields 5 and peroxides.Assuming that the trapping reaction is collision-controlled, from the temperature dependence of the competing processes an activation enthalpy of 23 kcal/mol is derived for the recombination of the diradical.By the same technique starting from 5 the heat of formation of the diradical has been determined, ΔHf0(g) = 100.8 kcal/mol.Key Words: Diradicals / Oxygen trapping / Shock-tube technique / Heats of formation / Heats of hydrogenation
Syntheses and Tandem Diels-Alder Reactivities of 7,7-Diphenylhericene(=7-(Diphenylmethylidene)-2,3,5,6-tetramethylidenebicycloheptane) and 7-Oxahericene(=2,3,5,6-Tetramethylidenebicycloheptan-7-one)
