Notes:
The polymerization of vinyl acetate in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) at 60°C initiated by AIBN in the presence of [Fe(DMF)6](ClO4)3 and Fe(N3)3 had been studied. Fe(N3)3 was produced in situ by mixing solid sodium azide (NaN3) and hexakis(N,N-dimethylformamide) iron (III) perchlorate, [Fe(DMF)6](ClO4)3, in the ratio of 3:1. The velocity constant kx for the interaction of poly(vinyl acetate) radical with [Fe(DMF)6]3+ was found to be 1.44 × 103L mol-1 s-1 and that for the interaction of poly(vinyl acetate) radical with Fe(N3)3 to be 3.44 × 105 L mol-1 s-1 at 60°C.
