CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF 2,2-AZOBISISOBUTYRONITRILE:
2,2-Azobisisobutyronitrile is a white columnar crystals or white crystalline powder.
2,2-Azobisisobutyronitrile is insoluble in water, soluble in methanol, ethanol, acetone, ether, petroleum ether and aniline and other organic solvents.
MECHANISM OF DECOMPOSITION OF 2,2-AZOBISISOBUTYRONITRILE:
In its most characteristic reaction, 2,2-Azobisisobutyronitrile decomposes, eliminating a molecule of nitrogen gas to form two 2-cyanoprop-2-yl radicals
Because 2,2-Azobisisobutyronitrile readily gives off free radicals, it is often used as a radical initiator.
This happens at temperatures above 40 °C, but in experiments 2,2-Azobisisobutyronitrile is more commonly done at temperatures between 66 °C and 72 °C.
This decomposition has a ΔG‡ of 131 kJ/mol and results in two 2-cyano-2-propyl (carbon) radicals and a molecule of nitrogen gas.
The release of nitrogen gas pushes this decomposition forward due to the increase in entropy.
And the 2-cyano-2-propyl radical is stabilized by the −CN group.
