Thermolysis of substituted tert-butyl-(2-phenyl-prop-2-yl) peroxides

tert-Butyl-(2-phenyl-1-methoxy-prop-2-yl)-peroxide (1a), tert-butyl-(2-phenyl-1-acetoxy-prop-2-yl)-peroxide (1b) and tert-butyl-(1,2-diphenyl-prop-2-yl)-peroxide (1c) were prepared from t-BuOOH and 1-methoxy-2-phenyl-prop-2-ol (a), 2-phenyl-2-methyl-oxirane (b) and, respectively, 1,2-diphenyl-propan-2-ol (c). The peroxides 1a-c were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Kinetic data were determined and the products analyzed from thermolysis of 1a-c at 110-155°C in cumene as the solvent. The major thermolysis product from 1a-c was acetophenone, formed via fragmentation of intermediate alkoxy radicals: R-CH2-C(Ph)(Me)O (R: MeO (a); AcO (b); Ph (c)). Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 1999.
