Kochi, Tetrahedron Lett., 4075 (1972), to methanesulfinyl radical resulting from the irradiation of terf-butyl meth-anesulfenate and have concluded that the spectra are in fact attributable to the methylbis(rerf-butoxysulfuranyl) radical.

The low-temperature ESR spectrum for anion radical 18 shows a triplet which was ascribed to hyperfme coupling to two protons in a single catechol ligand. An alternative formulation for this 11-Si-6 species would invoke equal hyperfme coupling to the two pictured protons in a structure in which one of the three O-Si-O hypervalent bonds (the one involving O’ atoms) is a 3c,3e bond and the other two O-Si-O bonds are 3c,4e bonds. Observable coupling only to the pictured ring protons meta to the hypervalent bond would be analogous to our observations for 2.???
