Through a complete analysis of the product distribution for each of the paraffin—olefin pairs at varying olefin concentrations, it is concluded that the nature of the solvent—solute interaction must consist of both hydrogen-atom scavenging and energy or charge transfer. Large yields of diolefinic dimers are observed even at olefin concentrations as low as 1%, and these yields are attributed largely to nonradical processes following preferential energy localization in the olefins. It is suggested that hydrogen-atom scavenging processes predominate at very low olefin content, but physical interaction becomes the more important factor as the olefin concentration is increased beyond about 1%.Read More
