Abstract: | The formation of radical pairs (RP) in solid mixtures of 3,6-di-tert-butyl-o-quinones (Q) and 3,6-di-tert-butylpyrocatechol (QH2) under the action of shock-wave (SW) pulses was studied by ESR and IR spectroscopy. The radical pairs are formed only when a threshold value of SW power is achieved. The generation of RP is preceded by the formation of hydrogen-bonded associates QH2…Q upon intimate mixing and fine dispergation of the reagents in a SW field. The incorporation of the reagents into a polymeric matrix favors the formation of associates and stabilization of the pairs, which leads to a decrease in the SW power threshold. Deceased.
