The objective of this experiment is to conduct a free radical reaction and measure the ratio of products through a GC analysis. Free radical reactions are important to understand because they allow chemists to design synthesis of complex molecules from very simple organic molecules. The reagents used were 2‚3-dimethylbutane as the carbon chain‚ t-butyl peroxybenzoate as the initiator‚ and sulfuryl chloride as the source of chloride radicals. The predicted products are 1-chloro-2‚3-dimethylbutane
