Homolytic telomerization of vinyl acetate with tetrachloroethylene at high pressures

Summary

  1. 1.

    At atmospheric pressure the reaction of vinyl acetate with tetrachloroethylene in presence of azodiisobutyronitrile at 65° is a telomerization reaction. When the reaction is carried out under a pressure of 4000 kg/sq. cm, the average number of tetrachloroethylene units in the molecules of the solid reaction products is two, which indicates that a copolymerization process is also occurring.

  2. 2.

    The relations found for the effect of pressure on the reaction studied are explained in terms of concepts of the theory of the transition state.
