Abstract

1H, 13C, 29Si, 77Se, 119Sn and 125Te NMR spectroscopies reveal that methyl, primary and secondary alkyl radicals, generated through the reaction of aryltelluroalkanes (4–9) with tributyltin hydride, tributylgermanium hydride or tris (trimethylsilyl) silane) under standard radical conditions (benzene, AIBN) are capable of displacing tributylstannyl, tributylgermyl and tris (trimethylsilyl) silyl radicals from aryltellurotributylstannanes (1, 2), ...
