✦ Synopsis
The mechanism of addition reactions of radicals formed during thermal decomposition of benzoyl peroxide with various chloro-substituted p-benzoquinones has been studied by the ESR technique in various solvents. The ESR spectra of the intermediate radicals show that addition occurs at the carbonyl oxygen. The important role of charge-transfer complexes in the reaction has been established. For strong CT complexes, the quinone molecule reacts with radicals derived from the solvent.
