Since their discovery, the fullerenes have challenged scientists with a wide array of problems concerning their properties, behavior and potential applications. One such fundamental question is that of the assembly of these ...

Part I. Semibenzene methyl 7,7-diphenyl-p-mentha-1(7),2,5-triene-8-carboxylate (1), which can be regarded as the para recombination product of triphenylmethyl and methyl isobutyryl radicals (5), affords exactly these ...

Peresters $\beta$ to azo or azoxy groups are potentially interesting bifunctional initiators. They decompose thermally at essentially the same rate as the analogous simple perester. It follows that decomposition occurs ...

While azoalkanes are normally employed as convenient sources of radicals and biradicals, radical cation salts such as tris-(4-bromophenyl)aminium hexachloroantimonate and thianthrenium perchlorate oxidize azoalkanes under ...

The limitations of zero quantum NMR pulse sequences reported in the literature are discussed. Several new pulse sequences which improve and extend the scope of the currently available pulse sequences are described. A ...

The photodissociation of fully deuterated azomethane into two CD$\sb3$ radicals and N$\sb2$ was studied using transient CARS spectroscopy as a nanosecond resolved probe of the photoproducts. The Raman-active $\nu\sb1$ ...

The 1-cyclopropylcyclopentyl radical (114a) and 1-cyclopropylcyclohexyl radical (114b) were generated in the presence of PhSH via 366 nm photolysis of azo-1-cyclopropylcyclopentane and azo-1-cyclopropylcyclohexane respectively. ...
