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

Summary

  1. 1.

    A new method is proposed for determining the activation energy of the chain propagation reaction in chain oxidation reactions with an initiator.

  2. 2.

    In the liquid-phase oxidation of acetone, the activation energy of the chain propagation reaction is 15–16 kcal/mole.
