TL;DR: The decarboxylation of acyloxy radicals and the rearrangement of these radicals with 1,5- or 1,6-hydrogen migration are thermodynamically equivalent.
Abstract: 1. The decarboxylation of acyloxy radicals and the rearrangement of these radicals with 1,5- or 1,6-hydrogen migration are thermodynamically equivalent. 2. Analysis of the structure of the molecular orbitals of acyloxy radicals shows that the coordination of these radicals with variable-valence metals capable of transferring electron density suppresses the decarboxylation reaction.
