Résumé
Aminoalkyl radicals, such as Et2NCHCH3, have low oxidation potentials and are therefore powerful reducing agents. We have found that Et2NCHCH3 reacts with CCl4 and CBr 4 in di-tert-butyl peroxide with bimolecular rate constants (measured by LFP) close, or equal, to the diffusion-controlled limit. For the less reactive halide, CH2Br2, the reaction rate is increased substantially by the addition of acetonitrile as a co-solvent. It is tentatively concluded that these reactions occur by electron-transfer from the aminoalkyl to the organohalide with formation of the iminium ion, Et2N +CHCH3 (NMR detection), halide ion and a halomethyl radical, e.g., CCl3 and CHCl2 (ESR, spin-trapping detection). © 2011 Elsevier B.V.
