Reactions with Oxygen- and Nitrogen-containing Radicals

REACTIONS WITH OXYGEN- AND NITROGEN-CONTAINING RADICALS 

Reactions of alkanes with hydroxyl radicals, which take place in the atmosphere under the action of irradiation and occur as crucial stages in oxidation of hydrocarbons are of great importance and have been investigated in detail [20], The data for reactions of HO with some alkanes are summarized in Table II.2 [20f], Reaction of alkanes with nitric acid occurs as a radical chain process with participation of radicals HO andN02 [21]  

Radical nitration of a hydrocarbon with cerium ammonium nitrate begins 

The photochemically excited nitroxide II-l reacts with such alkanes as cyclohexane, isobutane and -butanc abstracting hydrogens and generating carbon-centered radicals which are trapped by ground state II-1 [23]
