Electron spin resonance studies of transient alkyl radicals

TL;DR: In this article, the ESR lines are found to be narrow; considerable fine structure is observable, permitting positive assignment of the radical species, and accurate hyperfine constants are reported for 21 alkyl and cycloalkyl radicals, including several deuterated species.
