Abstract
The ability of the benzoyl peroxide-potassium bromide-18-crown-6 system to initiate the liquid-phase oxidation of cumene at 298 K was found. Individua l components of the initiating system. as well as the oxidation product (hy droperoxide), do not participate in the initiated oxidation reaction. The r ate of initiation was determined using the inhibitor method and by measurin g the initial rate of oxidation.
