The chemistry of diacyl peroxides-VIII. The reactions between polyfluorodiacyl peroxides and 2-nitro-2-nitrosopropane--Generation of bis (polyfluoroalkyl) nitroxides
Abstract Thermal decomposition of 2-nitro-2-nitrosopropane (4) in F113 (CCl 2 F-CClF 2) solution involves C-NO bond fission and forms acetone as the major product. In the presence of polyfluorodiacyl peroxide (3), the oxidation of 4 by 3 to 2, 2-dinitropropane (5) is the predominant reaction and bis (polyfluoroalkyl) nitroxide (1) is generated as one of the by- products.
