Abstract

The purpose of the work reported herein was to determine whether the Baldwin-Beckwith rules could be extended to the cyclizations of alkenyl silicon-centered radicals. The question was whether radicals of type 1 would undergo kinetically controlled exo cyclization to afford 2 or thermodynamically controlled endo cyclization to afford 3.
