title: Investigations into the effectiveness of deuterium as a "protecting group" for C-H bonds in radical reactions involving hydrogen atom transfer.
abstract: Competition experiments have been carried out to determine the extent to which deuterium can be used as a protecting group for carbon-hydrogen bonds in radical-based intramolecular hydrogen atom transfer processes.
