Isomerization of chemically activated secondary butyl radical

Photolytic decomposition of hydrogen sulfide followed by the addition of energized hydrogen atoms to cisbut-2-ene gives excited sec-butyl radicals. The radicals undergo a 1,3 hydrogen migration as is evidenced by the good agreement between the RRKM calculations and experiment. The contribution of a 1,2 hydrogen shift cannot be excluded. The threshold energies are 153.8 and 176.8 kJ mol^–1 for 1,3 and 1,2 isomerization, respectively.
