Spiropentyl radical was generated by Hydrogen abstraction from spiropentane by t-butoxyl radical and its e.s.r. spectrum obtained.The experimental e.s.r. parameters were compared with computational results obtained using semi-empirical SCF MO methods.The spiropentyl radicals do not undergo β-scission in the observable temperature range (T H2 attack by the halogen atom to give 1-(halogenomethyl)cyclopropylmethyl radicals.The β-scission of these latter radicals has been inves tigated by e.s.r. spectroscopy and by the reduction of 1,1-bisbromomethylcyclopropane with tri-n-butyltin hydride.
