In the reversible ring opening-closing process of a cyclopropylmethyl radical, an α-cyclopropylbenzyl radical such as a radical generated from compound 1 h is thermodynamically favored. On the other hand, a 2-phenylcyclopropylmethyl radical, such as radical A, rapidly undergoes a ring-opening reaction to give a thermodynamically stable benzyl radical such as radical B.
