Abstract

The major products of the self-reaction of 1, 1-diphenylethylperoxyl have been determined from product studies of the autoxidation of 1, 1-diphenylethane, induced decomposition of 1, 1-diphenylethyl hydroperoxide, and decomposition of 2, 2, 3, 3-tetraphenylbutane under an atmosphere of oxygen. Overall self-reaction is a complex free-radical process involving the intermediacy of 1, 1-diphenylethoxyl and 1-phenyl-1-phenoxyethoxyl which undergo H- ...
