Revealing the Iron-Catalyzed β-Methyl Scission of <i>tert</i>-Butoxyl Radicals via the Mechanistic Studies of Carboazidation of Alkenes
We describe here a mechanistic study of the iron-catalyzed carboazidation of alkenes involving an intriguing metal-assisted β-methyl scission process. Although t-BuO radical has frequently been observed in experiments, the β-methyl scission from a t-BuO radical into a methyl radica...
