Abstract

Thermolysis of lauroyl peroxide in various organic solvents was studied. It was shown that the primary homolytic dissociation of the peroxide group is accompanied by secondary reactions of chain-induced decomposition. The reaction medium affects the rate of both the primary homolytic dissociation and secondary induced decomposition processes. Correlation equations between the rate constants of the reactions in study and the physicochemical parameters of the solvents were proposed.
