Abstract

The rate constants for the reaction of primary alkyl radicals with substituted phenolic compounds have been measured in benzene or toluene at room temperature by using the radical clock technique. With three representative phenols, containing in the ortho positions substituents of different size, the kinetics of the hydrogen transfer to alkyl radicals was studied at different temperatures to obtain the corresponding Arrhenius parameters. The kinetic solvent effect on the reaction with α-tocopherol was also investigated in six different solvents behaving as hydrogen bond acceptors, while the reaction with 2,4,6-trimethylphenol and 2,6-di-tert- butylphenol was studied in toluene and γ-valerolactone. For some phenols, the effect of self-aggregation on the kinetic parameters was also studied.
