Abstract
It has been shown that the processes involved in the formation of quinones and the recombination of peroxide radicals take place with the same rate constants. The results obtained give grounds for assuming that the formation of quinones is the result of the recombination and disproportionation of peroxide radicals. A sequence of the reactions taking place in the enzymatic oxidation of lignin is suggested.
