Hydroperoxyl (HOO.) and alkylperoxyl (ROO.) radicals show a different behavior in H-atom-transfer processes. Both radicals react with an analogue of -tocopherol (TOH), but HOO., unlike ROO., is able to regenerate TOH by a fast H-atom transfer: TO.+(HOOTOH)-T-.+O-2. The kinetic solvent effect on the H-atom transfer from TOH to HOO. is much stronger than that observed for ROO. because noncovalent interactions with polar solvents (SolvHOO(.)) destabilize the transition state.

Abstract

Hydroperoxyl (HOO.) and alkylperoxyl (ROO.) radicals show a different behavior in H-atom-transfer processes. Both radicals react with an analogue of -tocopherol (TOH), but HOO., unlike ROO., is able to regenerate TOH by a fast H-atom transfer: TO.+(HOOTOH)-T-.+O-2. The kinetic solvent effect on the H-atom transfer from TOH to HOO. is much stronger than that observed for ROO. because noncovalent interactions with polar solvents (SolvHOO(.)) destabilize the transition state.
