Hot Hydrogen Atom Displacement Reaction at Ethylenic C-H Bonds

Journal Article · · Journal of the American Chemical Society
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1021/ja01475a004· OSTI ID:4841945
Reaction of hot hydrogen atoms to replace hydrogen atoms in cis and trans dichloroethylenes proceeds with 70% retention of the original configuration. This indicates the existence at sp/sup 2/ C --H bonds, of a fast single-step displacement mechanism, not involving a common intermediate, and sindlar to that previously found in saturated systems. The isomerization that does occur can result from rotation about the double bond of product molecules excited in the primary displacement. A hot hydrogen double bond addition mechanism may also yield isomerized dichloroethylenes.
