Aziridinylmethyl and oxiranylmethyl radicals undergo ring-opening reactions
the verdict
SUPPORTED
the evidence backs this
confidence 84/100
Both experimental and theoretical studies demonstrate that aziridinylmethyl and oxiranylmethyl radicals readily undergo ring-opening reactions, with the regiochemistry strongly influenced by substituent effects.
