This work was supported by the Fonds der tions."] From a mechanistic point of view a general reaction coordinate, which is characterized by two electronically complementary limiting cases, can be formulated for these processes. R. Hoffmann et al. have considered (qualitative theory) one of these limiting cases by using the example of chlorine addition to difluorocarbene (Scheme 1, left branch). 121 According to these studies the polar a-addition of the halogen molecule X, 2 is initiated by a valent (ie 2c/2e) LAB (Lewis Acid Base) interaction between then* orbital of the halogen (HOMO) and the 2p, orbital of the (S)-carbene 1 (LUMO), from which primarily the halonium ylide 3 should result.[21 Its conversion to the methane derivative 6 can now proceed by the familiar route of sigmatropic 1, 2-shifts in ylides. As in the Stevens rearrangement the latter process could also involve radical pairs (in our case 3a) a mechanistic option not discussed by H~ ffmann.[~] In this case the reaction between 1 and 2 would be initiated by a hypervalent LAB-interaction between the sp, lone pair of the carbene and the CT* LUMO of the halogen (Scheme 1. right branch). This interaction should initially lead to the hypervalent 3c/4e situation 4 within the framework of an S, 2 reaction at the halogen X. Depending on the substituents R'/R2 as well as the
