The reduction of p-benzoquinone (BQ) by 1-benzyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamide (BNAH) proceeds by a free-radical chain mechanism initiated by single electron transfer (SET). In dry deoxygenated acetonitrile, the chain, whose propagation steps contain a SET–hydrogen atom transfer sequence, could be inhibited by dinitrobenzene and initiated by di-tert-butylperoxyoxalate. The reduction does not follow second-order reaction kinetics. The fractional order of each reactant was found to be 0.80 and 1.36 for BNAH and BQ, respectively. The AG0 values for both the initiation and the propagation steps were evaluated electro-chemically (CV) and were found to be of a reasonable magnitude to sustain a free-radical chain process. Keywords: 1-benzyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamide, p-benzoquinone, free radical, reduction.

The reaction of alkanes with a mixture of bromine and mercuric oxide gives alkyl bromides in preparatively useful yields. The reagent is significantly more reactive than elemental bromine, and it is believed that bromine monoxide, formed insitu by the interaction of bromine and mercury oxide, is the reactive intermediate. Bromination by bromine monoxide is a free radical chain process in which hydrogen abstraction is carried out predominantly by bromoxy (BrO•) radicals, and to a lesser extent by bromine atoms.
