Exchange reactions, radical

An exchange reaction between bis(trifluorometbyl)mercury and tetrame-thylleud gives trimethyl(mfluoromethyl)plumbane [23] (equation 17) This plum-bane can also be prepared via the reaction of tetramethyllead with tnfluoromethyl radicals produced in a radio-frequency discharge of C2F [24]... 

A discussion of ligand exchange reactions of organometallic compounds associated with oxidation-reduction processes leading to free-radical formation will be found in Volume 14 (Free-radical polymerization). 

The Rate Constants of Peroxyl Radical Exchange Reaction with Hydroperoxides... 

In the presence of specially added hydrogen peroxide, the stationary concentration of hydroperoxyl radicals increases due to the exchange reaction. 

The chain unit in the thermal and photochemical oxidation of aldehydes by molecular dioxygen consists of two consecutive reactions addition of dioxygen to the acyl radical and abstraction reaction of the acylperoxyl radical with aldehyde. Experiments confirmed that the primary product of the oxidation of aldehyde is the corresponding peroxyacid. Thus, in the oxidation of n-heptaldehyde [10,16,17], acetaldehyde [4,18], benzaldehyde [13,14,18], p-tolualdehyde [19], and other aldehydes, up to 90-95% of the corresponding peroxyacid were detected in the initial stages. In the oxidation of acetaldehyde in acetic acid [20], chain propagation includes not only the reactions of RC (0) with 02 and RC(0)00 with RC(0)H, but also the exchange of radicals with solvent molecules (R = CH3). 

Vardanyan [65,66] discovered the phenomenon of CL in the reaction of peroxyl radicals with the aminyl radical. In the process of liquid-phase oxidation, CL results from the disproportionation reactions of primary and secondary peroxyl radicals, giving rise to trip-let-excited carbonyl compounds (see Chapter 2). The addition of an inhibitor reduces the concentration of peroxyl radicals and, hence, the rate of R02 disproportionation and the intensity of CL. As the inhibitor is consumed in the oxidized hydrocarbon the initial level of CL is recovered. On the other hand, the addition of primary and secondary aromatic amines to chlorobenzene containing some amounts of alcohols, esters, ethers, or water enhances the CL by 1.5 to 7 times [66]. This effect is probably due to the reaction of peroxyl radicals with the aminyl radical, since the addition of phenol to the reaction mixture under these conditions must extinguish CL. Indeed, the fast exchange reaction... 

Matyjaszewki et al. [229,236] pointed out the importance of the bimolecular exchange reaction (Eq. 19) to control the molecular weight and its distribution. Simulation revealed a decrease in the Mw/Mn values during polymerization, but the contribution in the actual polymerization is still ambiguous [237-240]. Reports have also addressed the importance of the decomposition of the alkoxyamine such as the disproportionation of the propagating radical and the nitroxide for the control of the polymerization [229,236,241 ]. 

Humus/SOM enter into a wide variety of physical and chemical interactions, including sorption, ion exchange, free radical reactions, and solubilization. The water holding capacity and buffering capacity of solid surfaces and the availability of nutrients to plants are controlled to a large extent by the amount of humus in the solids. Humus also interacts with solid minerals to aid in the weathering and decomposition of silicate and aluminosilicate minerals. It is also adsorbed by some minerals.
