3. The term of "radical traslocation" has been introduced by Curran. Radicals are generated at favorable sites and then "traslocated" to new sites. See: Curran, D. P.; Kim, D.; Liu, H. T:; Shen, W. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1988, 110, 5900.

28. It is generally accepted that steric hindrance between radical scavenger and the substituent cis to the radical center is an important effect in determining the stereochemistry of radical addition of thiols to alkynes (refs 6a,d; see also: Chatgilialoglu, C.; Ferreri, C.

30. Dialkylacetylenes undergo radical addition of benzenethiol leading to (Z) and (E)-adducts in a Z/E ratio increasing with the size of alkyl substituents (refs 6a,e). The predominant formation of transaddition (Z)-products with hex-3-yne and oct-4-yne would result from predominant occurrence of (Z)-radicals in the mixture of equilibrating GZ)- and (E)-radicals, owing to steric hindrance between the alkyl substituents.
31. Reversible radical addition of thiols to alkenyl sulfides leading to dithioacetals has been reported (Oswald, A. S.; Griesbaum, K.; Hudson, B. E.; Bregman, J. M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1964, 86, 2877).
