Reactions of electrophiles with bromocyclopropane; a nuclear decay study
Abstract
The gase-phase reactions of 3HeT+, CX3+, and C6X5+(X = H or T), produced by β– decay, with cyclopropyl bromide were studied by analysis of the radioactive neutral products. Competition between the ring and the bromine atom as reaction sites was observed. A comparison with previous gas-phase and condensed-phase studies is given.
