Pyridines or N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-p-phenylenediamine will undergo a photostimulated free radical chain reaction with alkylmercury halides or carboxylates, yielding ring alkylated substitution products.Alkene mercuration products (R1CH(Y)CH(R2)HgX with Y=HO, RO, CH3CONH; X=Cl, CH3CO2, CF3CO2) can be used without isolation for the alkylation reaction
