Abstract
Radical addition reactions of bromomalononitrile to various alkenes us ing 2,2'-azobis(2,4-dimethyl-4-methoxyvaleronitrile) (V-70) were exami ned. The advantages of V-70 which is an effective radical initiator at low temperature in contrast to the other azobis compounds are describ ed, Especially V-70L (the low melting point diastereomer) was found to be the best radical initiator.
