The title compound, a phenoxyl radical containing a nitrono group, reacts with alcohols and tert-butylhydroperoxide yielding phenol and products of secondary solvent reactions.The reactions with lead tetraacetate, tert.-butoxy and 2-cyanoisopropyl radicals give high yields of cyclohexadienone adducts (6, 7 and 10) containing unchanged nitrono function.The reaction with dibenzoylperoxide, however, leads to the modification of the nitrono group yielding the N-benzoyloxycarboxamide (8).In the acidic decomposition of the tert-butoxy radical adduct we suggest a nitrenium ion (16) as an intermediate.
