For the first time, enol ester cation radicals are reversibly monitored in a cyclic voltammetry experiment. Preparative one-electron oxidation of enol acetates A1-A4 leads to the formation of benzofurans Bl-B4 through mesolytic 0-CO bond fragmentation to a-carbonyl cations and the acetyl radical. With A3*+, the kinetics of the 0-CO bond cleavage was investigated by cyclic voltammetry, providing AP= 17.0 kcal mol-'and AS*= 11 cal mol-l K-' ...
