Abstract

Dimethyldioxirane consumption increases considerably in the presence of cumene. The product composition (cumic alcohol, acetophenone, α-methylstyrene) and the inhibiting effect of oxygen prove a radical reaction mechanism. The kinetic order for dimethyldioxirane increases with the conversion from 1.5 to 2.
