Substitution, addition, and group transfer reactions can occur intramolecularly. Intramolecular substitution reactions that involve hydrogen abstraction have some important synthetic applications, since they permit functionalization of carbon atoms relatively remote from the initial reaction site. ° The preference for a six-membered cyclic transition state in the hydrogen abstraction step imparts position selectivity to the process ... 

If hydrogen transfer is under thermodynamic control, then the vitamin will experience cleavage of the weakest CH (or OH) bond. Compare energies ofradicals derived from hydrogen abstraction at different positions from a model a-tocopherol (R = CH3). Which radical is most stable Are there alternative radicals of similar stabihty ... 

PE produced by a high-pressure polymerization process (pressure 1000-3000 atm) using a free radical initiator is a highly branched material that contains both LCBs and SCBs. The polymer so produced is a low-density material (density up to about 0.925 g/cc) and is known as high-pressure low-density PE (HP LDPE). The LCBs are formed via intermolecular hydrogen transfer [19], whereas SCBs are formed by intramolecular hydrogen abstraction [16]. 

In the presence of radical initiators such as benzoyl peroxide (BPO), azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN), persulfates (S208 ), etc., grafting of vinyl monomers onto polymeric backbones involves generation of free radical sites by hydrogen abstraction and chain transfer processes as described below ... 

The hydrogen abstraction from —SH groups is faster than from —OH groups. Hebeish et al. [9] and Misra et al. [10,11] reported the chain-transfer method of initiation of graft copolymerization onto cellulosic substrates with azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) and benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as initiators. 

Cases of addition-abstraction" polymerization have also been reported where propagation occurs by a mechanism involving sequential addition and intramolecular 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer steps (Section 4.4.3.4). 

The value of CM has been determined by a number of groups as 6x 10 5 (Table 6.14.1. " However, the mechanism of transfer has not been firmly established. A mechanism involving direct hydrogen abstraction seems unlikely given the high strength of vinylic and aromatic C-M bonds. The observed value of Cy is only slightly lower than Ctr for ethylbenzene ( 7x 10"5). w... 

For allyl acetate a significant deuterium isotope effect supports the hydrogen abstraction mechanism (Scheme 6,31).183 Allyl compounds with weaker CTT-X bonds (113 X=SR, S02R, Bi etc.) may also give chain transfer by an addition-fragmentation mechanism (Section 6.2.3). 

The microstrueture of PVC has been the subject of numerous studies (Sections 4.3.1.2 and 6.2.6.3).214 Starnes el n/.l6S determined the long chain branch points by NMR studies on PE formed by Bu,SnlI reduction of PVC. They concluded that the probable mechanism for the formation of these branches involved transfer to polymer that occurred by hydrogen abstraction of a backbone methine by the propagating radical (Scheme 6.32),...

Photo-induced Diels Alder reaction occurs either by direct photo activation of a diene or dienophile or by irradiation of a photosensitizer (Rose Bengal, Methylene Blue, hematoporphyrin, tetraphenylporphyrin) that interacts with diene or dienophile. These processes produce an electronically excited reagent (energy transfer) or a radical cation (electron transfer) or a radical (hydrogen abstraction) that is subsequently trapped by the other reagent. 

Hydrogen-Atom Transfer. Many oxidation and reduction reactions are free-radical substitutions and involve the transfer of a hydrogen atom. For example, one of the two main propagation steps of 14-1 involves abstraction of... 

Similarly, energy-transfer processes, together with electron transfer and hydrogen abstraction reactions could be induced in poly(organophosphazenes) in an intramolecular way by preparing POPs geminally substituted at the same phosphorus with two different substituent groups.
