TL;DR: In this paper, correlation analyses of the effects of diazonium ion substitution on the rates of reduction were performed for simple hydroxylation and chlorination in aqueous solution.

TL;DR: The photochemical and photopolymerisation properties of 1-fluoro-4-propoxythioxanthone (FPTX), 1-chloro-4propoxyntioxanthones (CPTX) and BPTX have been determined and compared with the corresponding activity of ITX as discussed by the authors, where the latter two initiators exhibit rates of intersystem crossing which are almost comparable with that of benzophenone.

TL;DR: For Sandmeyer cyanation at 298 K in 50% v/v aqueous acetonitrile buffered at pH 8, absolute rate constants have been obtained for the reduction of 4-methoxybenzenediazonium tetrafluoroborate by the cyanocuprate(I) anions CuI(CN)43−, CuII(NCMe)(CN)32− and CuI[NCMe)2(CN]2− as (0.50 ± 0.05), (0,12 ± 0,03

TL;DR: In this paper, the Pschorr cyclisation of 2-aroylphenyl radicals has been studied and the results show that the radical translocation occurs with a statistically corrected effective molarity of 2.2.

TL;DR: The rate data indicate that aryl radicals exhibit nucleophilic character during these ligand transfers and that, in the competition between chlorination and hydroxylation, the reactivity–selectivity principle is not obeyed.
