Procedure

Ethylbenzene hydroperoxide was prepared in a series of experiments. In the first experiment 100 ml. ethylbenzene were heated to 135° C. in a reactor. Five ml. of isobutane hydroperoxide initiator were added. Air was then bubbled through the reaction at a rate of 100 cc./per minute and a pressure of 140 psig. (965 kPa). The concentration of ethylbenzene hydroperoxide (EBHP) was determined at 30 minute intervals. This procedure was repeated several times except that 0.5 g. of sodium hydroxide, barium hydroxide or barium oxide was used under anhydrous conditions. The results of these experiments are set out in Table I.
