To study a radical scavenging reaction of α‐tocopherol, it was reacted with methyl radical in dimethyl sulfoxide. Two main products, a geminal dimethyl cyclohexadienone and methyl ether of α‐tocopherol, were obtained and these structures were determined by 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The radical methylation data of α‐tocopherol suggested that a delocalized radical species would be an intermediate.
