In the presence of a radical initiator (Z•), tributyltin hydride (R3SnH, R = CH3CH2CH2CH2) reduces alkyl halides to alkanes: R′X + R3SnH → R′H + R3SnX. The mechanism consists of a radical chain process with an intermediate tin radical:
This reaction has been employed in many radical cyclization reactions. Draw a stepwise mechanism for the following reaction.
When exposed to a radical initiator, the C-H bond in HCC13 will cleave homolytically and undergo
radical addition to alkenes. With this in mind, propose a mechanism for the following reaction:

The reaction occurs with Markovnikov regiochemistry, so the OH group adds to the more highly substituted carbon and the H adds to the less highly substituted carbon. The initial product of the reaction is a vinyl alcohol, also called an enol. The enol immediately rearranges to a more stable ketone via tautomerization.
