The photo‐S RN 1 reaction of (+)‐camphor and aryl halides was investigated in order to estimate the stereochemistry of the coupling step of aryl radicals with a nucleophile. The ratio of endo to exo products determined by 1 H NMR and CD spectra was found to be 99:1. MNDO calculations of the orbital parameters showed a favorable one‐sided overlap of the enolate ion with the SOMO of aryl radical. In addition, fragmentation of (ArX) − was found to be related to the energy of SOMO of (ArX) − .
