The use of chemical sensitizers such as benzoyl peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, or azo-bis-isobutyronitrile, which decompose thermally to give free radicals in a convenient temperature range (i.e., 60 C to 150 C), makes it possible to study polymerizations over an extended temperature range. The form of the rate law with chemical initiations would be given by setting III = 2k (ln)< >i in Eq. (XVI.10.4). Here (In) is the initiator concentration, k I its specific rate constant of decomposition which can usually be measured independently, and is the efficiency with which its radicals initiate chains. The measure of t is subject to the difficulties already indicated in connection with the photolysis systems. ... 

The oxidation of phosphites to phosphates is very important in the chemistry of nucleoside phosphites, which must be handled under anhydrous conditions. For this purpose, anhydrous hydrogen peroxide bis(trimethylsilyl) peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, and iV-methylmor ... 

Mercaptan-terminated liquid polysulfide polymers are polymerized to rubbery solids by oxidizing agents (e.g., lead dioxide, aetivated manganese dioxide, ealdum peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide, alkaline diehromates, and />-quinonedioxime). The euring proeess involves the oxidation of the terminal mereaptan groups in the polysulfide polymers to form the corresponding disulfide.

The most common water-soluble initiators used in the laboratory are potassium, sodium and ammonium salts of persulphate. Next in line are the water-soluble azo-compounds, especially those with an ionic group, such as 2,2 -azobis(2-methylpropionamidine) dihydrochloride or V-50. Another important group are the peroxides (benzoyl peroxide, cumene hydroperoxide). 

Some fabrication processes, such as continuous panel processes, are mn at elevated temperatures to improve productivity. Dual-catalyst systems are commonly used to initiate a controlled rapid gel and then a fast cure to complete the cross-linking reaction. Cumene hydroperoxide initiated at 50°C with benzyl trimethyl ammonium hydroxide and copper naphthenate in combination with tert-huty octoate are preferred for panel products. Other heat-initiated catalysts, such as lauroyl peroxide and tert-huty perbenzoate, are optional systems. Eor higher temperature mol ding processes such as pultmsion or matched metal die mol ding at temperatures of 150°C, dual-catalyst systems are usually employed based on /-butyl perbenzoate and 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di-2-ethyIhexanoylperoxy-hexane (Table 6). 

Cumene hydroperoxide [95], benzoyl peroxide, or tert-h iiy peroxide [96]. can be used as accelerators with alkylboron initiators. The chain transfer constant for MMA to tributylborane has been estimated to be 0.647, which is comparable to tripropylamine [97]. 

Organic peroxide-aromatic tertiary amine system is a well-known organic redox system 1]. The typical examples are benzoyl peroxide(BPO)-N,N-dimethylani-line(DMA) and BPO-DMT(N,N-dimethyl-p-toluidine) systems. The binary initiation system has been used in vinyl polymerization in dental acrylic resins and composite resins [2] and in bone cement [3]. Many papers have reported the initiation reaction of these systems for several decades, but the initiation mechanism is still not unified and in controversy [4,5]. Another kind of organic redox system consists of organic hydroperoxide and an aromatic tertiary amine system such as cumene hydroperoxide(CHP)-DMT is used in anaerobic adhesives [6]. Much less attention has been paid to this redox system and its initiation mechanism. A water-soluble peroxide such as persulfate and amine systems have been used in industrial aqueous solution and emulsion polymerization [7-10], yet the initiation mechanism has not been proposed in detail until recently [5]. In order to clarify the structural effect of peroxides and amines including functional monomers containing an amino group, a polymerizable amine, on the redox-initiated polymerization of vinyl monomers and its initiation mechanism, a series of studies have been carried out in our laboratory. 

Induced reactions involving hydrogen peroxide can be observed with hydrogen peroxide derivatives, as well. For instance, the reaction between cumene hydroperoxide and iron(IT), in the absence of oxygen, results in a considerable induced decomposition of the peroxy compound, while, in the presence of oxygen, a marked oxidation of iron(II) takes place s .

Organic peroxides such as cumene hydroperoxide and t-butyl hydroperoxide have extensively been used as experimental agents. They provoke lipid peroxidation in hepatocytes, probably by the generation of alkoxyl and peroxyl radical intermediates after reaction with cytochrome P450. Other cytotoxic mechanisms are probably involved including protein thiol and non-protein thiol oxidation and deranged calcium homeostasis (Jewell et al., 1986). In fact, the addition of cumene hydroperoxide to isolated bUe duct cells, devoid of cytochrome P450 activity, still results in cell death but lipid peroxidation is not detectable (Parola et al., 1990). 

In the preceding paragraph peroxides were described as key intermediates in autoxidation chemiluminescence. In most cases hydroperoxides were involved. The majority are well-defined compounds (e.g. cumene hydroperoxide), but autoxidation reactions are rather complex and peroxides are only one, though very important type of compound involved.

Hock Also known as the Hock Lang process, and the cumene peroxidation process. A process for converting isopropyl benzene (cumene) to a mixture of phenol and acetone m-di-isopropyl benzene likewise yields resorcinol, and p-di-isopropyl benzene yields hydro-quinone. The basis of the process is the liquid-phase air oxidation of cumene to cumene hydroperoxide ... 

In the first of these techniques the lanthanoid complex (33) (5-8 mol%) is used as the organometallic activator in cumene hydroperoxide or tert-butyl hydrogen peroxide-mediated oxidation of chalcone (epoxide yield 99 % 99 % ee) or the ketone (34) (Scheme 20)[1001.

While some phenol is produced by the nucleophilic substitution of chlorine in chlorobenzene by the hydroxyl group (structure 17.17), most is produced by the acidic decomposition of cumene hydroperoxide (structure 17.18) that also gives acetone along with the phenol. Some of the new processes for synthesizing phenol are the dehydrogenation of cyclohexanol, the decarboxylation of benzoic acid, and the hydrogen peroxide hydroxylation of benzene. 

Materials. Chemically pure solvents and reagent grade ceric ammonium nitrate were used as received. Cumene hydroperoxide was purified via the sodium salt. Lucidol tert-butyl hydroperoxide was purified by low temperature crystallization. Tetralin hydroperoxide, cyclohexenyl hydroperoxide, and 2-phenylbutyl-2-hydroperoxide were prepared by hydrocarbon oxidation and purified by the usual means. 1,1-Diphenyl-ethyl hydroperoxide and triphenylmethyl hydroperoxide were prepared from the alcohols by the acid-catalyzed reaction with hydrogen peroxide (10). 

Although zinc dialkyl dithiophosphates, [(RO)2PS2]2Zn, have been used as antioxidants for many years, the detailed mechanism of their action is still not known. However, it is certain that they are efficient peroxide decomposers. The effect of a number of organic sulfur compounds, including a zinc dithiophosphate, on the rate of decomposition of cumene hydroperoxide in white mineral oil at 150°C. was investigated by Kennerly and Patterson (13). Each compound accelerated the hydroperoxide decomposition, the zinc salt being far superior in its activity to the others. Further, in each case the principal decomposition product... 

No readily acceptable mechanism has been advanced in reasonable detail to account for the decomposition of hydroperoxides by metal dialkyl dithiophosphates. Our limited results on the antioxidant efficiency of these compounds indicate that the metal plays an important role in the mechanism. So far it seems, at least for the catalytic decpmposition of cumene hydroperoxide on which practically all the work has been done, that the mechanism involves electrophilic attack and rearrangement as shown in Scheme 4. This requires, as commonly proposed, that the dithiophosphate is first converted to an active form. It does seem possible, on the other hand, that the original dithiophosphate could catalyze peroxide decomposition since nucleophilic attack could, in principle, lead to the same chain-carrying intermediate as in Scheme 4 thus,... 

Earlier it was reported that hydrogen peroxide and cumene hydroperoxide improve the yields of 1,3-diarylureas from the reaction of weakly basic aromatic amines with carbonyl sulfide at elevated temperatures [80]. The results are summarized in Table X.
