Di-tert-butyl nitroxide

Description:
Di-tert-butyl nitroxide (CAS 2406-25-9) is a stable free radical and a member of the nitroxide family, characterized by its unique structure that includes two tert-butyl groups attached to a nitroxide functional group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and is known for its stability, which is attributed to the steric hindrance provided by the bulky tert-butyl groups. Di-tert-butyl nitroxide exhibits antioxidant properties and is often used as a radical scavenger in various chemical reactions, particularly in polymer chemistry to control radical polymerization processes. Its stability allows it to serve as a spin label in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, providing insights into molecular dynamics and interactions. Additionally, it can participate in redox reactions, making it useful in various synthetic applications. Due to its radical nature, care must be taken when handling this compound, as it can react with other radicals or reducing agents.
