73. The singly occupied orbital can serve as both the electron donor and acceptor. According to NBO analysis, the donor character dominates as follows from the relative energies of n-snC-S (17.8 and 9.0 kcal mol-1 for a and b spins, respectively) and sC-S-n (,0.5 and 6.6) interactions (for the adduct of tosyl radical and 1-hexyne). The vinyl radical of the phenylacetylene additions displayed an unusual Lewis structure (hypervalent carbon) which precluded the analysis of hyperconjugative interactions.
