New syntheses of mixed peroxides under Gif–Barton oxidation of alkylbenzenes, conjugated alkenes and alkanes; a free-radical mechanism

Abstract
Syntheses of mixed peroxides are performed under Gif oxidation of alkylaromatics, electron-rich conjugated alkenes (styrene, α-methylstyrene) or cyclohexane and acrylonitrile; chemical and kinetic evidence support a free-radical redox chain mechanism.
