Abstract
The kinetics of formation of free radicals in the cyclohexanone (CH)-t ert-butyl-hydroperoxide (TBHP)-para-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA) system in acetonitrile was studied. The stoichiometry of the reaction corres ponds to the consumption of two TBHP molecules per ketone molecule, wh ereas the yield of free radicals is similar to 20 % based on the TBHP reacted.
