Abstract
The enthalpies and equilibrium constants of the exchange reactions of peroxy radicals with hydroperoxides of various structures are calculated. The experimental data on the reactions of hydrogen atom abstraction by the peroxy radicals from the hydroperoxides are analyzed, and the kinetic parameters characterizing these reactions are calculated using the intersecting parabolas method. The activation energies and rate constants for nine reactions of H atom abstraction by a peroxy radical from the OOH group of a peroxide are calculated using the above parameters. The geometric parameters of the transition states for the reactions are calculated. The low triplet repulsion plays an important role in the fast occurrence of the reactions. The polar interaction in the transition state is manifested in the reactions of the peroxy radicals with hydroperoxides containing a polar group.
