18. DMB fluoride was prepared by substitution of the hydroxyl group of DMB (ref 3a) by fluorine. The reaction was performed with (diethylamino)sulfur trifluoride (DAST) in dichloromethane at -80 °C. The product was purified by column chromatography (silica gel, dichloromethane).
19. The amount of conversion was determined by GC/MS analysis, actinometry was done with ferrioxalate. The standard error defines reproducibility.

21. The rate constant is not accurately defined, because the reaction end point is not reached at the end of the delay line (1.85 ns).
