Abstract

Species produced by electron transfer to variously substituted bicyclo [3.1. 0] hex-3-en-2- ones provide a better insight into the origin of 1, 6-addition products sometimes observed by reaction of lithium diorganocuprates with β-cyclopropyl α-enones. Cyclic voltammetry of eight such bicyclohexenones show that the half-lives of the corresponding anion radicals are very short (t1 2⩽ 10− 4s) except when the initial molecule is phenyl substituted at C-4. ...
