Abstract

The thermolysis of diethylketone cyclic triperoxide (3,3,6,6,9,9-hexaethyl-1,2,4,5,7,8-hexaoxacyclononane, DEKTP) was studied in different polar solvents (ethanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, 2-butanol, 2-methyl-2-propanol, and acetonitrile). The rate constant values (kd) are higher for reactions performed in secondary alcohols probably because of the possibility to form a cyclic adduct with the participation of the hydrogen atom bonded to the secondary carbon. The kinetic parameters were correlated with the physicochemical properties of the selected solvents. The products of the DEKTP thermal decomposition in different polar solvents support a radical-based decomposition mechanism.
