- Alkyl halides can be reduced to alkanes by a radical reaction with tributyltin hydride, (C4H9)3SnH, in the presence of light (hv). Propose a radical chain mechanism by which the reaction might occur. The initiation step is the light-induced homolytic cleavage of the Sn-H bond to yield a tributyltin radical.arrow_forwardIn the presence of a radical initiator (Z•), tributyltin hydride (R3SnH, R = CH3CH2CH2CH2) reduces alkyl halides to alkanes: R′X + R3SnH → R′H + R3SnX. The mechanism consists of a radical chain process with an intermediate tin radical: This reaction has been employed in many radical cyclization reactions.

- Peroxides are often added to free-radical reactions as initiators because the oxygen–oxygen bond cleaves homolytically rather easily. For example, the bond-dissociation enthalpy of the O¬O bond in hydrogen peroxide (H¬O¬O¬H) is only 213 kJ>mol (51 kcal>mol). Give a mechanism for the hydrogen peroxide-initiated reaction of cyclopentane with chlorine. The BDE for HO¬Cl is 210 kJ>mol (50 kcal>mol).arrow_forwardConsider the reaction of NaCl with 2- bromo-2-methylhexane in acetone/water.
