10. A sample of diethyl ether is allowed to stand, over time it reacts with molecular oxygen to form peroxides: OOH O2 and hv R. Propose an arrow-pushing mechanism to illustrate the formation of the peroxide from the ether starting material. Use "R•" as the initiator. Show all curved arrows and single electrons. All steps MUST be propagation steps.
