Abstract

Abstract: In the reaction of magnesium with bromocyclopropane in diethyl ether at reflux, intermediate cyclopropyl radicals attack the solvent, giving cyclopropane (20-30 mol/100 mol of bromocyclopropane consumed) and solvent-derived products. In contrast, the similar reaction of 1-bromohexane gives no more than 0.5 mol of hexane from solvent attack by hexyl radicals. These data are consistent with calculations based on a mechanism (D ...
