The substitution reactions of pentachlorobenzenesulfenyl chloride with saturated alkanes were found to proceed by a free radical chain mechanism where the pentachlorobenzenethiyl radical is the predominant chain-carrying species. The selectivity of this radical could be determined by the investigation of the photoinitiated reactions of bispentachlorophenyl disulfide with a number of alkanes.

The metal ion catalyzed chlorination of 1-chlorobutane, 1-chlorohexane, methyl-pentanoate, and methyl-heptanoate by protonated N-chloroamines proceeds by a free radical chain mechanism and the chain carrying species was shown not to be a chlorine atom, but an amino radical cation.

A thermodynamical argument is used to support the suggestion made elsewhere that the more common radical chain mechanism for catalysed decomposition of H2O2 need not predominate if the catalyst can readily undergo a reversible 2-electron oxidation. How complete the exclusion of free radical formation may be depends upon the redox characteristics of the catalyst and on whether its oxidation by two single-electron steps is readily reversible along the same path.
