Triphenylmethyl peroxide

For example, in the decomposition of phenylazotriphenylmethane in benzene, triphenylmethyl peroxide is formed if oxygen is present, indicating a radical reaction. The unstable phenyl radical does not persist long enough to dimerize but reacts instead with the solvent. 

An example of the rearrangement reaction is afforded by the decomposition of triphenylmethyl peroxide.11 89...

However, he found that unless air was carefully excluded from the sv tem, the product was triphenylmethyl peroxide, (C6Hs)3COOC(C6H5)g, rati. than the expected hexaphenylethane. 

Dialkyl peroxides ROOR are often obtained as the principal product or as by-product of autoxidation of organic compounds, but almost always as a result of secondary reactions of alkyl hydroperoxides. Direct union of relatively long-lived radicals with oxygen is of minor importance and occurs only in exceptional cases, e.g., in the formation of bis(triphenylmethyl) peroxide from triphenylmethyl 343...
