  2. Organic peroxides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_peroxides

    Organic peroxides are often sold as formulations that include one or more phlegmatizing agents. That is, for safety sake or performance benefits the properties of an organic peroxide formulation are commonly modified by the use of additives to phlegmatize (desensitize), stabilize, or otherwise enhance the organic peroxide for commercial use.

  3. Peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxide

    The peroxide group is marked in blue. R, R 1 and R 2 mark hydrocarbon moieties. The most common peroxide is hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2), colloquially known simply as "peroxide". It is marketed as solutions in water at various concentrations. Many organic peroxides are known as well. In addition to hydrogen peroxide, some other major classes of ...

  4. Alkenyl peroxides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkenyl_peroxides

    This reasoning also applies to aryl peroxides. Both compound classes thus have significantly weaker O-O bonds than other peroxides. [2] [3] Because of this weak bond, alkenyl peroxides are generally only postulated as reactive intermediates. An exception is the case of some few heteroarylperoxides, which were long-lived enough to be characterized.

  5. Acetone peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetone_peroxide

    Acetone peroxide (/ æ s ə ˈ t ə ʊ n p ɛr ˈ ɒ k s aɪ d / ⓘ also called APEX and mother of Satan [3] [4]) is an organic peroxide and a primary explosive. It is produced by the reaction of acetone and hydrogen peroxide to yield a mixture of linear monomer and cyclic dimer, trimer, and tetramer forms. The monomer is dimethyldioxirane.

  6. Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_ethyl_ketone_peroxide

    Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (MEKP) is an organic peroxide with the formula [(CH 3)(C 2 H 5)C(O 2 H)] 2 O 2. MEKP is a colorless oily liquid. It is widely used in vulcanization (crosslinking) of polymers. [3] It is derived from the reaction of methyl ethyl ketone and hydrogen peroxide under acidic conditions.

  7. Hydroperoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroperoxide

    When R is organic, the compounds are called organic hydroperoxides. Such compounds are a subset of organic peroxides , which have the formula ROOR. Organic hydroperoxides can either intentionally or unintentionally initiate explosive polymerisation in materials with unsaturated chemical bonds .

    He defined the peroxide effect, explaining how an anti-Markovnikov orientation could be achieved via free radical addition. [1] Kharasch was born in the Russian Empire in 1895 and immigrated to the United States at the age of 13. In 1919, he completed his Ph.D. in chemistry at the University of Chicago and spent most of his professional career ...
