The pyrolysis of methyl alkyl esters I to III and dithioesters IV to VI were theoretically calculated. All possible pyrolysis paths were considered. Both esters and dithioesters presented three potential paths via six-, four- and five-membered ring transition states, respectively. The calculation processes were calculated using MP2/6-31G(d) set. In-depth theoretical analyses were also presented, including NBO related analyses, synchronicities, and charge distributions, to reveal the detailed pyrolysis process.

The structure of a new compound formed in the reaction of ethoxyquin with alkylperoxy radicals was resolved by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy (including COSY, NOESY, HHC RCT and SSLR INEPT techniques) and confirmed by mass spectrometry. The structure suggest participation of 4-methyl group of ethoxyquin in the deactivation of peroxy radicals. A mechanism of this reaction is proposed.

The oxidations of the title perchlorates, bearing the sterically diverse 6'-substituents (H, Me, Et, i-Pr, n-Bu, t-Bu and Ph) in two series with the same 4-substituents (Ph and t-Bu) lead to pairs of isomeric 3',5-disubstituted (Z)-1'-phenyl-3'-(2-phenylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-yl)prop-2'- en-1'-ones and 3,6'-disubstituted [5-phenyl-1-(6'-pyridin-2'-yl)-1H-pyrrol-2-yl](phenyl)methanones except where the both variable substituents are t-Bu and then only pyrrolic product is formed. Considering steric interactions of the substituents in some intermediate and/or transition states a multistep mechanism for the oxidative transformation is proposed and supported by model PM3-PECI calculations of some radical intermediates.
