Conclusions
-
1.
The homolytic addition of ethyl orthoformate to 1-hexene is accompanied by fragmentatizon and isomerization of the intermediate radicals, as a result of which the adduct ethyl 2-octyl carbonate is formed.
-
2.
The formyl C-H bond in ethyl orthoformate is approximately an order of magnitude more reactive than the α-C-H bond of the ethoxy group.
