To probe for free radical intermediates in the model methylmalonate to succinate rearrangements promoted by vitamin B12s, a model series with a pentenyl side chain radical trap has been devised. The control free radical, generated by tri-n-butyltin hydride treatment of bromomethyl-pentenylmalonate thioester, undergoes rapid cyclization to the six-membered ring, and, as anticipated, no succinate rearrangement product is detected. By contrast when the bromide is treated with vitamin B12s, little cyclized product is observed; the major product is the pentenyl succinate. This result demonstrates that the latter rearrangement does not follow a free radical pathway.
