Abstract
Decomposition of dicumyl peroxide and cumyl tert-butyl peroxide was studied in the presence of tetraethylammonium halides in acetonitrile, dimethylfor mamide, 2-propanol, and acetic acid. The tetraethylammonium halides acceler ate the decomposition of dialkyl peroxides in 2-propanol and acetic acid, b ut do not affect the reaction velocity in dimethylformamide and acetonitril e. The decomposition products character depends on the solvent nature.
