Oxyradical reactions: from bond-dissociation energies to reduction potentials.
نویسنده
چکیده
Destructive radical reactions involve alkyl, alkoxyl and alkylperoxyl radicals, as well as alkylhydroperoxides. From bond energies the following reduction potentials vs NHE at neutral pH are derived: E0'(RO./ROH) = 1.6 V, E0'(ROO./ROOH) = 1.0 V, E0(ROOH/RO., H2O) = 1.9 V, and the two-electron reduction potential E0'(ROOH/ROH, H2O) = 1.7 V. Hydrogen abstraction from a bis-allylic methylene group by alkoxyl and alkylperoxyl radicals is favourable with Gibbs energies of -23 and -9 kcal/mol, respectively. Similarly, alkoxyl radicals can oxidize alkylhydroperoxides, delta G0' = -14 kcal/mol.

متن کاملBond dissociation energies
The bond dissociation energy (enthalpy) is also referred to as bond disruption energy, bond energy, bond strength, or binding energy (abbreviation: BDE, BE, or D) . It is defined as the standard enthalpy change of the following fission: R−X → R + X . The BDE, denoted by Do(R−X), is usually derived by the thermochemical equation, Do(R−X) = ∆fH o(R) + ∆fH o(X) – ∆fH o(RX) . The enthalpy of format...

Formal potentials of the first reduction leading to dechlorination in dimethylformamide were obtained from convolution analysis of voltammetric data and confirmed by quantum chemical calculations for a series of polychlorinated benzenes: hexachlorobenzene (-2.02 V vs. Fc(+)/Fc), pentachloroanisole (-2.14 V), and 2,4-dichlorophenoxy- and 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acids (-2.35 V and -2.34 V, r...

ION REACTIONS The technique for estimation of activation energies for simple atom transfer reactions was developed by Johnston and coworkers (1963, 1966). The method is based upon the concept of conservation of bond order during the reaction process. Here bond order is defined as a number which is related to the strength of the chemical bond, hence bond energy-bond order (BEBO). In this notatio...
