Photolytically generated tert-butoxyl radicals react with vinyl- and propenyl ethers by hydrogen abstraction and addition to the double bond; the abstraction/addition ratio and the regioselectivity of addition are interpreted in terms of predominant steri

The t-butoxyl radical has been generated in aqueous solution from the reaction between Ti(III) and t-BuOOH in a flow system.Evidence is presented which indicates that, although the fragmentation of t-BuO(.) to Me(.) and acetone is rapid under these conditions (k > 10E6 dm3 mol-1 s-1), competing addition reactions (e.g. to vinyl ethers, furan) and abstraction reactions (with alcohols) can be characterized. t-BuO(.) is shown to be electrophlic, like (.)OH, in its reactions, but with prop-2-en-1-ol, unlike (.)OH, it undergoes abstraction rather than addition.Changes in the behaviour of t-butoxyl at very low pH are attributed to the formation and reaction of the protonated counterpart t-BuOH(1+.).
