Aryl radicals bearing an aldimino functional group as part of an ortho substituent cyclized by addition to C and/or N of the imino group.When the choice was between 5-exo closure to C and 6-endo closure to N, the former predominated.However, 6-endo closure to C predominated over 5-exo cyclization to N in isomeric imines.Absolute values of cyclization rate constants were determined and an explanation for the unusual 6-endo preference is offered.Chiral induction in 6-endo cyclization to C of an aldimine from D-glyceraldehyde acetonide was observed, and its sense was determined.

Aryl radicals cyclize to an imino functional group in a competition involving 6-endo closure to C and 5-exo closure to N. there is a large 6-endo preference forming tetrahydroisoquinolinyl radicals with k(6-endo) (80°C) > 108 s-1.
