Cumyl hydroperoxide (CAS 80-15-9) is colorless transparent liquid, an organic peroxide;
Synthetic organic chemistry. Cumene hydroperoxide is an intermediate in the cumene process for developing phenol and acetone from benzene and propene. It is typically used as an oxidizing agent. Products of decomposition of cumene hydroperoxide are methylstyrene, acetophenone, and cumyl alcohol. Its formula is C6H5C(CH3)2OOH. One of the key uses for the material is as a free radical initiator for acrylate and methacrylate monomers.Specification of Cumene hydroperoxide
