22. 2,2′-Azobis(2,4-dimethyl-4-methoxyvaleronitrile) (V-70) is known as an effective initiator in the synthesis of polymers and is commercially available from Wako Pure Chemical Ind., Ltd., Japan. The abbreviation in parentheses is its trade name. This compound should be stored below -10°C to prevent any decomposition. Half-life data indicates that V-70 is more unstable than AIBN in solvents. The temperature at which half of V-70 and AIBN is decomposed in 10 h in toluene: V-70, 30°C; AIBN, 65°C. V-70 is stable in a refrigerator for a few months in a solid state.
