Summary
-
1.
The reaction between cumene hydroperoxide and triethylenetetramine proceeds only in presence of iron.
-
2.
The activity of iron salts depends on the experimental conditions and its variation is probably to be explained by the hydrolysis of these salts.
-
3.
It was shown that the amine is able to reduce ferric salts, both in acid and in alkaline media.
-
4.
The order of the reaction was determined with respect to all the reaction components, and the activation energy was calculated for the over-all reaction.
-
5.
A law was deduced for the change in the concentration of hydroperoxide with time, and the constants of the over-all reaction were calculated.
