Abstract
1,1'-Azobis(1-phenyl[1-^(13)C]ethane) (1) was prepared in 15% overall yield, starting from [1-^(13)C]acetic acid (99 atom %). Analysis of end-group concentrations in styrene-acrylonitrile copolymers prepared with 1 as initiator allows accurate determination of the relative rates of addition of these monomers to the 1-phenylethyl radical. We obtain k_s/k_A = 0.20 ± 0.02, a result consistent with the penultimate model treatment of the styrene-acrylonitrile copolymerization by Hill, O'Donnell, and O'Sullivan.
