Popis: Methyl thioglycolate (II) adds to the antitumor antibiotic neocarzinostatin chromophore (I) to initially give (III), which is stable for days under argon at -70 °C. Intermediate (III) rapidly decays at -38 °C and above to produce the major products (VI) and (VII) via the monoradical (IV) and the diradical (V), resp., indicated by 2H incorporation at C-2 and C-6 of (VII) to the extent of 35 ±5% and at C-2 of (VI) to the same degree.
