The mechanism for the given reaction has to be given.

Organic Chemistry, Loose-leaf Version, Chapter 8, Problem 8.34P

Concept Introduction:

The polymers are formed from the repetition monomer units.  The polymerization process occurs in three steps.

  1. 1. Chain initiation
  2. 2. Chain propagation and
  3. 3. Chain termination.

Chain initiation occurs by the formation of radical from one of the monomer units.  Propagation occurs by the reaction of the radicals with molecules.  Chain termination occurs by neutralization of radicals.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanism for the formation of poly(styrene) from styrene has to be given and at which end of the styrene double bond, the R· attacks has to be given.
