beta scission
A beta scission reaction is a chemical reaction where the main feature is the scission of a bond beta (connected to an adjacent atom) to the atom bearing a radical. A unimolecular reaction involving beta scission of a bond in a molecular entity results in the formation of a radical as one product with concomitant formation of an unsaturation in the other product.
