Summary
4-Fluoro- and 4,4′-difluorostilbene are similar in their reactivities towards the benzoyloxy radical; a similar conclusion has been reached in respect of 4-chloro- with 4,4′-dichlorostilbene and 4-phenyl-with 4,4′-diphenylstilbene. These results have been obtained by consideration of the numbers of benzoate and phenyl end-groups in poly (methyl methacrylate) made using benzoyl peroxide in the presence of the appropriate derivative of stilbene.
