β¦ Synopsis
By pyrolyzing di-t-butyl peroxide over the temperature range of 405-450 K in the presence of hexafluoroacetone the kinetics of the addition reaction (l), CH3 + (CF3)zCO + (CF3)&(O)CH3, have been studied. Detailed analyses have shown that the principal product of the adduct radical, (CF3)&(O)CH3, is CF3COCH3 from reaction (2), (CF~)ZC(O)CH~ -CF3COCH3 + CF3. The rate constant of the addition reaction was determined to be kl(dm3/mol-s) = (1.1 f 4.0) X lo9 exp(-(3680 f 480)/T) over the temperature range 405450 K, based on the value k 3 = 2.2 X 1Olo dm3/mol.s for reaction (3), 2CH3 -CzHe. The results are discussed in relation to existing data for radical additions to carhonyl groups.
