RATE CONSTANTS FOR REACTIONS OF PEROXYL RADICALS IN FLUID SOLUTIONS

Absolute rate constants for reactions of alkylperoxyl and substituted alkylperoxyl radicals with inorganic and organic compounds in aqueous and non aqueous fluid solutions have been compiled. The radicals have been generated by radiolysis or photolysis and their rate constants were determined generally by kinetic spectrophotometry or esr. Rate constants are included also for formation of peroxyl radicals by reaction of alkyl radicals with oxygen and for decay of peroxyl radicals by radical radical reactions. © 1990, American Institute of Physics for the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
