Rate constants for abstraction of primary and secondary hydrogens from 2,2-dimethylbutane by the tert-butylperoxy radical at temperatures from 323 to 353 K have been determined from autoxidations and co-autoxidations in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide. At 333 K the rate constant for abstraction of a secondary hydrogen is ~1.5 × 10−3 M−1 s−1 and the rate constants for abstraction of a primary hydrogen from the tert-butyl and methyl groups of 2,2-dimethylbutane are ~4 × 10−5 and ~6 × 10−5 M−5 s−1 respectively.

Autoxidation of 3-methylpentane in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide gives, after reduction with triphenylphosphine, 3-methyl-3-pentanol and 3-methyl-2-pentanol as the major reaction products. The overall rate constant for reaction of (CH3)3COO· with this substrate at 30 °C is 0.008 ± 0.001 M−1 s−1 which consists of k/tertiary C—H = 0.007 ± 0.001 M−1 s−1 and k/secondary C—H = 0.0002 ± 0.0001 M−1 s−1. The products from cooxidation of cumene and 3-methylpentane in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide are formed in yields which are consistent with these rate constants relative to a value of 0.16 M−1 s−1 for cumene. The Arrhenius equations for reaction of (CH3)3COO• with the t-C—H and s-C—H of 3-methylpentane relative to the Arrhenius equation for reaction of (CH3)3COO• with cumene (log (k10/M−1 s−1) = (8.7 ± 0.3) − (13.2 ± 0.4)/θ) are[Formula: see text]respectively, where θ = 2.303 RT kcal mol−1.

The rates of oxidation of adenosine and α-tocopherol by tert-butoxyl radicals (t-BuO•) were studied spectrophotometrically. Radicals (t-BuO•) were generated by the photolysis of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH) in presence of tert-butyl alcohol to scavenge •OH radicals. The rates and the quantum yields () of oxidation of α-tocopherol by t-BuO• radicals were determined in the absence and presence of varying concentrations of adenosine. An increase in the concentration of adenosine was found to decrease the rate of oxidation of α-tocopherol, suggesting that adenosine and α-tocopherol competed for t-BuO• radicals. From competition kinetics, the rate constant of α-tocopherol reaction with t-BuO• was calculated to be 7.29 x 108 dm3 mol-1 s-1. The quantum yields expt and cal values suggested that α-tocopherol not only protected adenosine from t-BuO• radicals, but also repaired adenosine radicals, formed by the reaction of adenosine with t-BuO• radicals.
