106 Addition to Unsaturated Bonds and a-dicarbonyl compounds, respectively. The proposed reaction mechanism is summarized in Scheme 5.9 and involves the addition of Me3Si: radical to the carbonyl group and subsequent hydrogen abstraction from Bu3SnH. In turn, the Bu3Sn: radical displaced the Me3Si: radical from PhSeSiMe3 and completes the radical reaction cycle (see Section 1.1).

The initial a-silyl alkoxyl radical 47 could be formally one of the two possible adducts of silyl radical to the carbonyl group, although evidence has never been found for such a reaction. On the other hand, the rearranged carbon-centred radical 48 is identical to the adduct of silyl radical with the carbonyl group. In this section, we briefly describe this rearrangement, which is also called radical Brook rearrangement because it resembles the well known analogous ionic reaction [61].
