CASREACT (Chemical Abstracts Reaction Search Service) is a reaction database started in 1985 with more than 6.7 million reactions (3 million single-step and 3.7 million multi-step reactions) (March, 2003) derived from 400 000 documents (journals, patents, etc.). The records contain the following information ...

Nevertheless, many free-radical processes respond to introduction of polar substituents, just as do heterolytic processes that involve polar or ionic intermediates. The substituent effects on toluene bromination, for example, are correlated by the Hammett equation, which gives a p value of — 1.4, indicating that the benzene ring acts as an electron donor in the transition state. Other radicals, for example the t-butyl radical, show a positive p for hydrogen abstraction reactions involving toluene. ... 

Intramolecular hydrogen abstraction reactions have also been observed in mediumsized rings. The reaction of cyclooctene with carbon tetrachloride is an interesting case. As shown in the equation below, whereas bromotrichloromethane adds to cyclooctene in a completely normal manner, carbon tetrachloride gives some 4-chloro-l-trichloromethyl-cyclooctane as well as the expected product ... 

The converse of polymerization is heterolytic bond scission leading either to R3Sn+ or R3Sn species. Tricoordinate organotin(IV) cations can readily be synthesized at room temperature by hydride or halide abstraction reactions in benzene or other solvents.For example, with R = Me, Bu or Ph ... 

The first term is of importance in all atom abstraction reactions, however, since the reactions are often highly exothermic with consequent early transition slates, the effect may be small. 

Polar factors can play an extremely important role in determining the overall reactivity and specificity of hotnolytic substitution.97 Theoretical studies on atom abstraction reactions support this view by showing that the transition state has a degree of charge separation.101 10 ... 

A striking illustration of the influence of polar factors in hydrogen abstraction reactions can be seen in the following examples (Figure 1.8) where different sites on the molecule are attacked preferentially according to the nature of the attacking radical.67... 

A simple unifying theory to explain rate and specificity in atom abstraction reactions has yet to be developed. However, as with addition reactions, it is possible to devise a set of guidelines to predict qualitatively the rate and outcome of radical transfer processes. The following are based on those suggested by Tedder 2... 

Stames el al.I7 have provided support for the above mechanism (Scheme 6.29) by determining the unsaturated chain ends (112) in low conversion PVAc by l3C NMR. They were able to distinguish (112) from chain ends that might have been formed if transfer involved abstraction of a vinylic hydrogen. The number of unsaturated chain ends (112) was found to equate with the number of -CH OAc ends suggesting that most chains arc formed by transfer to monomer. Stames et a . 13 also found an isotope effect k kD of 2.0 for the abstraction reaction with CTTpCHOiCCD as monomer. This result is consistent with the mechanism shown in Scheme 6.28 but is contrary to an earlier finding.174... 

It is thus anticipated that compressive stress inhibits while tensile stress promotes chemical processes which necessitate a rehybridization of the carbon atom from the sp3 to the sp2 state, regardless of the reaction mechanism. This tendency has been verified for model ring-compounds during the hydrogen abstraction reactions by ozone and methyl radicals the abstraction rate increases from cyclopropane (c3) to cyclononane (c9), then decreases afterwards in the order anticipated from Es [79]. The following relationship was derived for this type of reactions ...

We also observe other effects of translational energy in methane which are similar to those found in hydrogen. There is an abstraction reaction for parent ions which also produces a hydronated methane. In studying the reaction... 

Thus we think of the chemical ionization of paraffins as involving a randomly located electrophilic attack of the reactant ion on the paraffin molecule, which is then followed by an essentially localized reaction. The reactions can involve either the C-H electrons or the C-C electrons. In the former case an H- ion is abstracted (Reactions 6 and 7, for example), and in the latter a kind of alkyl ion displacement (Reactions 8 and 9) occurs. However, the H abstraction reaction produces an ion oi m/e = MW — 1 regardless of the carbon atom from which the abstraction occurs, but the alkyl ion displacement reaction will give fragment alkyl ions of different m /e values. Thus the much larger intensity of the MW — 1 alkyl ion is explained. From the relative intensities of the MW — 1 ion (about 32%) and the sum of the intensities of the smaller fragment ions (about 68%), we must conclude that the attacking ion effects C-C bond fission about twice as often as C-H fission. 

Thus, the process of hydride ion abstraction from a primary position is approximately thermoneutral, and hence we must conclude that it is an energetically allowed process, although possibly with a relatively small reaction rate. A process competing with primary H abstraction (Reaction 13) is methide ion abstraction (Reaction 11, loss of CH4 from the... 

Correlated or geminate radical pairs are produced in unimolecular decomposition processes (e.g. peroxide decomposition) or bimolecular reactions of reactive precursors (e.g., carbene abstraction reactions). Radical pairs formed by the random encounter of freely diffusing radicals are referred to as uncorrelated or encounter (P) pairs. Once formed, the radical pairs can either collapse, to give combination or disproportionation products, or diffuse apart into free radicals (doublet states). The free radicals escaping may then either form new radical pairs with other radicals or react with some diamagnetic scavenger...
