- In chemistry,
homolysis (from Gr**** ὅμοιος (homoios) 'equal' and λύσις (lusis) 'loosening') or
homolytic fission is the
dissociation of a
molecular bond...
- side reaction. The
process is
typically initiated with persulfate,
which homolyzes to
generate sulfate radicals: [O3SO−OSO3]2− ⇌ 2 SO•− 4 The
resulting polymer...

chlorination of
methane as an example:
Initiation Ultraviolet radiation splits (
homolyzes) a
chlorine molecule to two
chlorine atom radicals.
Chain propagation...
- component. The
process is
typically initiated with peroxydisulfate,
which homolyzes to
generate sulfate radicals.
Because FEP is
poorly soluble in almost...
- polymethylhydrosiloxane. The
thiobenzoyl radical intermediates formed when the
ester homolyzes fragment into
carbonyl sulfide and
phenyl radicals before forming tributyltin...
- Ph2P− group. Ph2P-PPh2 + 2 Na → + 2 NaPPh2 Alternatively, the
compound can
homolyze along the weak P–P bond, in
which case the
resulting radicals add to alkenes...
- (ONOOCO− 2) is by far the
predominant pathway for ONOO−. ONOOCO− 2
homolyzes to form
carbonate radical and

- Very few
chloramines are stable, and they
easily decompose. In acid, they
homolyze in the Hofmann–Löffler reaction; in base, they
eliminate to the corresponding...
- of polyethylene. A key step is homolysis: ROOR ⇌ 2 RO. The
tendency to
homolyze is also
exploited to
modify polymers by
grafting or visbreaking, or cross-link...
- N-chloroamine, which, in the
presence of heat, light, or
other initiators,
homolyzes to
ammonium and
chloride free radicals. The
ammonium radical intramolecularly...
