Application of copper (I) halides to modifying reactivity of polyhalomethanes and arenesulfonyl chlorides in free-radical addition.“Cross-halogenation” reaction
Abstract In the free-radical addition of a number of organohalogen reagents to cyclic alkenes and dienes in the presence of copper (I) halides the composition of the reaction products is governed by the stage of a fast halogen transfer from the copper derivative to the alkyl radical. Under these conditions in contrast to the free-radical addition reactions initiated by UV light or peroxide initiators the intramolecular rearrangements are suppressed, the ...
