A remarkably long half‐life of 74 h has been observed for the HgH‐substituted p ‐nitrophenylacrylate 1 (R 1 = Et, R 2 = p ‐NO 2 C 6 H 4 ) at 75°C in C 6 D 6 . This unusual stability stems from the electron‐withdrawing effects of the acrylic ester moiety, as revealed by quantum mechanical calculations. The corresponding organomercury radical 2 is also stable enough to be trapped intermolecularly (→ 3 ; X = Cl, Br).
