Strongly electrophilic radicals such as the halogens react with electron-rich reaction sites, and strongly nucleophilic radicals such as the 2-hydroxypropyl-2-yl and tert-butyl radical react with a preference for electron-poor reaction sites.
Os radicais fortemente electrofílicos como os halóxenos reaccionan con sitios ricos en electróns, e os radicais fortemente nucleofílicos como o 2-hidroxipropil-2-il e o radical tert-butil reaccionan con preferencia con sitios pobres en electróns.
