Clocking Tertiary Cyclopropylcarbinyl Radical Rearrangements

Three independent methods have been employed to estimate the rate constant, k1, for ring-opening of the 2-cyclopropyl-2-propyl radical, 1, at room temperature. These three estimates are based on chemical trapping of 1 and the ring-opened 4-methylpent-3-ene-1-yl radical by thiophenol (k1 = (1.65 ± 0.41) × 107 M-1 s-1), 9-azabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-N-oxyl (k1 = (1.76 ± 0.34) × 107 M-1 s-1) and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (k1 = (2.1 ± 0.4) × 107 M-1 s-1) and absolute rate constants for nonrearranging radicals structurally related to 1. The mean value for k1) ((1.84 ± 0.4) × 107 M-1 s-1) should be used when 1 is employed as a tertiary alkyl free radical clock at ambient temperatures.

HOMOALLYLIC SUBSTITUTION REACTIONS OF LITHIUM DIALKYL CUPRATES WITH CYCLOPROPYLCARBINYL HALIDES: MECHANISTIC CONSIDERATIONS
Hrubiec, Robert T.,Smith, Michael B.
, p. 1457 - 1468 (2007/10/02)
Highly reactive lithium dialkyl cuprates and 1-bromo-1-cyclopropylalkanes, 4, react to give good yields of the homoallylic substitution product, 6.Less reactive organocuprates react with 4 to give mixtures of 6 and the direct substitution product 7.These results are consistent with a copper(I) radical intermediate which undergoes facile rearrangement prior to reductive coupling.
