Degenerate chain branching mechanism in cyclohexanone undergoing oxidation

  • Published:
Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    The inhibitor method has been used to make a study of the decay into free radicals of α-ketocyclohexyl-hydroperoxide, formed in the oxidation of cyclohexanone. In cyclohexanone, the peroxide decays monomolecularly with a rate constant equal to 3·107 e−20400/RT sec−1.

  2. 2.

    In cyclohexanone, the α-ketocyclohexylhydroperoxide joins reversibly to the ketone to form a peroxide which rapidly decays into free radicals.
