Thiol-catalyzed direct generation of acyl radicals and their intramolecular addition to olefins of alkenals gave 2-substituted five- and six-membered cyclic ketones in reasonably good yields. The combination of odorless tert-dodecanthiol and AIBN or V-40 was the initiator of choice among surveyed radical generators for the cyclization of alkenals. Aldehydes having electron-deficient olefins cyclized more easily than those having unactivated olefins.
