摘要: Density functional theory calculations indicate that the SH2 reactions of disulfides with alkyl or aryl radicals take place via concerted backside displacement. The activation energies for Me• RSSR (R = Me, Et, iPr, tBu) increase size R, since larger R groups prevent formation an ideal geometry SOMO−LUMO overlap. Frontside transition states can also be located, but these lie at least 11 kcal mol−1 above corresponding states.
