ABSTRACT:

Two homologues of supramolecular Borromean rings were obtained based on the halogen-bonding-driven self-assembly of iodide ions with telechelic diiodoperfluoroalkanes.

ABSTRACT:

Perfluorodiacyl peroxides are an important class of perfluorinated peroxides. Thermal decompositions of selected temperature range perfluorinated peroxides have been analyzed in terms of stability of the radical products. In the temp of 0-90 C, all these peroxides undergo first-order decomposition in diluted solutions. EPR analyses provide important information in order to prove the structure of the oncoming perfluorinated radicals. Correlations between thermal stability and radical structures have been supposed.
