Notes:
It was found that the pyrolysis of [5-14C]-1-pentene gives radioactive 1,3-butadiene. This result can be explained in terms of a sequence of free radical rearrangements of 1-penten-3-yl radicals. From this and additional information on isotope distribution in butadiene formed from different deuterated 1-pentenes, we conclude that homoallylic rearrangement of 1-penten-4-yl and 2-penten-5-yl radicals is the dominant route for their consumption.
