Abstract

We have been interested in the nature of the freeradical intermediate, in particular, the question of whether* nonclassical structures analogous to those proposed for ionic additions need to be considered for free-radical addition reactions. Evidence against the existence of carbon-bridged structures, such as I, 3 or sulfur-bridged-structures, such as 11, 4 as product- determining intermediates has al-
