Stereochemistry of the decay-induced halogen exchange in diastereomeric alkyl halides in the gas phase
From 7th international hot atom chemistry symposium; Julich, F. R. Germany (10 Sep 1973). The stereochemistry of the halogen for halogen substitution at asymmetric carbon atoms, induced by energetic or thermal bromine and iodine species was studied in diastereomeric alkyl halide molecules such as d,1- and meso-2,3-dichlorobutane. Energetic /sup 80/Br species were generated via the /sup 80m/Br (I.T.)/sup 80/Br nuclear process in reactor produced CF/sub 3/ /sup 80m/Br and allowed to react with the substrate molecules while still possessing excess kinetic energy or after having become thermalized in collisions with argon atoms. /sup 125/I species were produced via the radioactive decay of / sup 125/Xe. The observed results show in unmoderated systems generally a predominance of those products which were formed in the halogen for halogen exchange process under retention of configuration. (auth)
