T-Butylperoxylation

Tris-(3,5-di-isopropylsalicylato)iron(III) is a serviceable scavenger for t-butylperoxyl radicals, though it is not as effective as bis-(3,5-di-isopropylsalicylato)manganese(II). An electrochemical study of salicylate and of 2,3- and 3,4-dihydroxy benzoates focused on DMF as solvent. ...

Bonds to Oxygen.—Lower Oxidation States. Configuration interaction calculations have been carried out on the PO molecule using accurate SCF-LCAO-MO wavefunctions. E.s.r. spectra show that t-butoxyl radicals add to trialkyl phosphites - to produce phosphoranyl radicals Bu OP(OR)3, and that phosphorus(in) compounds and t-butylperoxyl radicals react by a simple bimolecular reaction. ...
