Abstract
The high reactivity of radicals makes it extremely difficult to study individual, elementary reaction steps by conventional experimental techniques. There are very often a number of competing reaction pathways which sometimes lead to ambiguous, in some cases even contradictive, interpretations of the obtained results.
