Chapter 9.2, Problem 17E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The characteristics of a molecule to act as a good initiator needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction: The initiator is used in the initiation step and it is used to start a chemical reaction.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reason for the unnecessary use of stoichiometric amount of the initiator needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction: Only a catalytic amount of initiator is required for initiation of reaction, further to which there is no role for the initiator in the chemical reaction.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: For the given radical initiators, the bond homolysis needs to be shown using the curved arrow when they are heated or irradiated.

  EBK EXPERIMENTAL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY: A M, Chapter 9.2, Problem 17E

Benzoyl peroxide         2,2'-Azobis [2methylproanenitrile]

Concept Introduction: In the bond dissociation, the movement of electrons always takes place from negative to positive charge. Thus, the direction of the curved arrow is also from negative to the positive charge.
