Abstract
Hydrogen abstraction may be postulated as the first step in reactions of aryl sulfenamides with the stable diphenylpicrylhydrazyl free radical. Differences in the reactivity of the sulfenamides are controlled by steric and electronic effects of the substituents, with attention drawn to the capacity of the divalent sulfur atom to relay these effects. Origins of decomposition products are discussed.
