MECHANISMS OF FREE-RADICAL REACTIONS. XIV. SELECTIVITY OF FREE-RADICAL CHLORINATION OF VALERIC ACID DERIVATIVES WITH ARYLCHLOROIODONIUM CHLORIDES

The free-radical chlorination of C4H9Y compounds with arylchloroiodonium chlorides was investigated.The reaction of the secondary C-H bonds increases as they become further from the electronegative substituent.The reaction parameters were calculated from the ratio of the β- and γ-monochlorides by means of the Taft equation.The absolute value of ρ increases with the introduction of electronwithdrawing substituents into the arylchloroiodonium chloride molecule.
