SPIN TRAPPING STUDIES OF PEROXYL RADICALS. DETECTION OF THE REACTIVE INTERMEDIATES FOR OXIDATION GENERATED FROM O2-. AND SULFONYL, SULFINYL AND PHOSPHORYL CHLORIDES

Article abstract of DOI:10.1246/cl.1989.167

The spin trapping studies by ESR have demonstrated that O2^-. efficiently reacts with 2-nitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride, 2-nitrobenzenesulfinyl chloride, and diphenylphosphoryl chloride, to result in the formation of their peroxyl radicals, some of which have been key intermediates for site-selective oxidation of certain organic molecules and argued whether they exist as anion and/or radical form.
