For this reason di-tert-butyl peroxide is commonly used as a radical initiator in organic synthesis and polymer chemistry. The decomposition reaction proceeds via the generation of methyl radicals. (CH 3) 3 COOC(CH 3) 3 → 2 (CH 3) 3 CO • (CH 3) 3 CO • → (CH 3) 2 CO + CH • 3 2 CH • 3 → C 2 H 6
tert-Butyl bromide (also referred to as 2-bromo-2-methylpropane) is an organic compound with the formula Me 3 CBr (Me = methyl). The molecule features a tert-butyl group attached to a bromide substituent. This organobromine compound is used as a standard reagent in synthetic organic chemistry. It is a colorless liquid.
This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.

tert-Butanesulfinamide (also known as 2-methyl-2-propanesulfinamide or Ellman's sulfinamide) is an organosulfur compound and a member of the class of sulfinamides. Both enantiomeric forms are commercially available and are used in asymmetric synthesis as chiral auxiliaries , often as chiral ammonia equivalents for the synthesis of amines .
MTBE forms azeotropes with water (52.6 °C; 96.5% MTBE) [26] and methanol (51.3 °C; 68.6% MTBE). [27] The solubility of water in MTBE is reported to be 1.5 g/100g at 23 °C. [26] In an investigational medical procedure called contact dissolution therapy, MTBE is injected directly into the gallbladder to dissolve cholesterol gallstones.
The effect of the tert-butyl group on the progress of a chemical reaction is called the Thorpe–Ingold effect illustrated in the Diels-Alder reaction below. Compared to a hydrogen substituent, the tert-butyl substituent accelerates the reaction rate by a factor of 240. [2] tert-Butyl effect. The tert-butyl effect is an example of steric hindrance.
