homolysis
An homolysis is the cleavage (or fission or dissociation) of a bond so that each of the molecular fragments between which the bond is broken retains one of the bonding electrons. A unimolecular reaction involving homolysis of a bond (not forming a cyclic structure) in a molecular entity containing an even number of (paired) electrons results in the formation of two radicals.
