46. As proposed by one referee, AIBN could also serve as relay for hydrogen delivery, through the intervention of H-AIBN adduct (see ref 13).
47. As pointed out by one referee, the addition of a methyl radical on a simple alkene is slow and propagation of the radical chain would not be operative (see for these kinetics: Zytowski, T.; Fischer, H. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1996, 118, 437-439). However, we can anticipate that 8 due to its highly conjugated character is a good acceptor of alkyl radicals.
