The structures of the transition states and the activation energies for all the paths causing the formation of the reaction products mentioned above were calculated by the AM1 semi-empirical method. This method is shown to to be one predict correctly the preferred pathway for the title reaction. It has been found that in ground state, the thermal decomposition of benzoyl peroxide has two kinds of paths. The first pathway PhC(O)O-OC(O)Ph→PhC(O)O · →Ph · +CO 2 produces finally phenyl radicals and carbon dioxide. And the second pathway PhC(O)OO-C(O)Ph→PhC(O)OO · +PhC(O) · → PhC(O) · +O 2 →Ph · +CO+O 2, via which the reaction takes place only in two steps, produces oxygen and PhC(O) · radicals, and the further thermal dissociation of PhC(O) · is quite difficult because of the high activation energy in ground state. The calculated activation energies and reaction enthalpies are in good agreement with the experimental values. The research results also show that also the thermal dissociation process of the two bonds or the three bonds for the benzoyl peroxide doesn′t take place in ground state.展开更多
Three crystal architectures, including one organic compound of benzoyl peroxide(Ⅰ) and two clusters of tri-iron(Ⅲ) and bi-cupper(Ⅱ) with benzoic ligands(2 and 3), were self-assembled by an in situ redox way...Three crystal architectures, including one organic compound of benzoyl peroxide(Ⅰ) and two clusters of tri-iron(Ⅲ) and bi-cupper(Ⅱ) with benzoic ligands(2 and 3), were self-assembled by an in situ redox way of benzoyl peroxide oxidants reacting with Mo, Fe and Cu powders, respectively. X-ray crystallographic results show that both the asymmetry tri-iron(Ⅲ) cluster and the benzoylperoxide crystal architecture(2 and 1) with complicated 3D networks were constructed by intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions. Contrarily, the symmetrical bi-copper(Ⅱ) cluster crystal architecture(3), only with π-π stacking between paralleled phenyl groups and without any intermolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions, only presented an 1D zigzag chain along the a-axis.展开更多

However, the abnormal used BPO has caused increasing concern due to its strong oxidization capability which may have adverse effects on living organisms. Herein, we present a carbon dot(CD)-based fluorescent and colorimetric probe for visually, sensitively and selectively sensing BPO. The addition of BPO could quench the red fluorescence of CDs peaked at 622 and 677 nm, and decrease the absorbance at 613 nm, while increase the absorbance at 450 nm, resulting in a fluorescence turn-off and colorimetric spectral response.Moreover, the CDs had short response time of 10 min and high sensitivity towards BPO with a low limit of detection of 28 nmol/L. The applicability of the CDs in detecting BPO in wheat, noodle and starch samples was further demonstrated, and good recovery results were obtained.展开更多

The reaction mechanism was changed with different initiators. For the reaction with AIBN or BPO as the initiator, there are 2 or 3 series of radical reaction chains and 5 or 9 series of polystyrenyl products. The main products are PSPA without or with the fragment of the initiator H[CH(C6H5)-CH2]n-PO2H2 and C6H5CO2-[CH2CH (C6H5)]n-PO2H2 respectively.展开更多
