An iron(III) methoxide complex reacts with <i>para</i>-substituted triarylmethyl radicals to give iron(II) and methoxyether products. Second-order rate constants for the radical derivatives were obtained. Hammett and Marcus plots suggest the radical transfer reactions proceed via a concerted process. Calculations support the concerted nature of these reactions involving a single transition state with no initial charge transfer. These findings have implications for the radical "rebound" step invo ...[more]
