Stereochemistry of the reaction of molecular oxygen with alkyl free radicals

In order to obtain chemical evidence concerning the configuration of free alkyl radicals, 1-(carbo-t-butylperoxy)-cis- and trans-1,4-dimethylcyclohexane and exo- and endo-2-(carbo-t-butylperoxy)-2-methylnorbornane have been synthesized, and their decomposition rates and products determined. The cis...
