Pt(IV) complexes trans-Pt(PEt3)2(R)(Br)3 (R = Br, aryl and polycyclic aromatic fragments) photoeliminate molecular bromine with quantum yields as high as 82%. Photoelimination occurs both in the solid state and in solution. Calorimetry measurements and DFT calculations (PMe3 analogs) indicate endothermic and endergonic photoeliminations with free energies from 2 to 22 kcal/mol of Br2. Solution trapping experiments with high concentrations of 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene suggest a radical-like excited state precursor to bromine elimination.
Reactions of a Graded Set of Radicals with N-Bromosuccinimide; Two Transition States

The reactions of N-bromosuccinimide with a series of radicals have been studied.These reactions fall into two categories, the more reactive radicals producing ?-succinimidyl and the less reactive radicals producing ?-succinimidyl.The threshold for the changeover from one reaction domain to the other occurs with radicals less reactive than secondary alkyls.These results are interpreted with two transition states, an in-line transition state for the more reactive radicals and an out-of-plane transition state for the less reactive radicals. An upper limit of 18 kcal/mol is established for the enthalpy difference, HS? - HS?.Two new methods for generating S? radicals are indicated.
