Conclusions
-
1.
A study was made of the sodium peroxydisulfate-initiated reaction of 1-heptene with acetic and propionic acids at 90–105°, as well as the effect of potassium hydroxide on this reaction.
-
2.
We were the first to discover that an olefin can be oxidized by a peroxydisulfate. The composition and character of the oxidation products are in agreement with the mechanism of a one-electron oxidation of the olefin and the formation of the cation-radical\(R--CH--\mathop {CH_2 }\limits^ + \) as the primary reaction product.
-
3.
Potassium hydroxide substantially suppresses the oxidation of the olefin by the peroxydisulfate and facilitates the homolytic alkylation of acids by the olefin.
