Light-induced formation of nitroxyl radicals by organic Bi(V) compounds in the presence of 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane and C-phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone

摘要

The organic bismuth compounds Ph3Bi(O2CCH=CHCH3)(2) and Ph3Bi(O2CEt)(2) decompose under scattered light in the presence of spin traps (2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane and C-phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone) in organic solvents (acetonitrile, benzene, toluene) to form adducts of phenyl radicals with the traps.
