Future studies should allow us to distinguish these possibilities, as well as to indicate why addition to ethyl vinyl ether (IP = 8.8 eV), but not to styrène (IP (ionization potential ) = 8.43 eV), was observed to occur.

17. Distonic radical cations 2-c-e were generated upon 266 nm photolysis of the corresponding iodides in methanol using a Lumonics HY-750 Nd:YAG laser (8 ns pulse width; ca. 45 mJ/pulse). The UV-vis computer-controlled detection system has been described previously.18 The kinetics of the ring closure reactions of 2-d,e were studied at 320 and 335 nm, repectively (formation of products). The temperature was varied from ca. -60 to +20°C.
