| Abstract: | ESR spectra have been recorded for a number of radicals generated in a flow cell by interaction of diallylmalonic acid, diallyl ether, diallylamine, and related compounds with amino, hydroxyl, and phenyl radicals in aqueous solution. The results indicate that the radicals initially formed by homolytic addition at one of the double bonds in the diolefins rapidly undergo cyclization to afford product radicals containing five-membered rings. |
