11. 5b In fact, a very broad singlet was obtained that decayed completely on cutting off the light, leaving no long-lived peroxyl signal. The observed singlet is presumably due to a mixture of cyclohexyl and n-alkyl peroxyl radicals, with the lines being broadened by the increased viscosity induced by the dodecyl chains.

13. Note that the shoulders on the high-field components of the spectra in parts d and e of Figure 1 are also due to t-BuOO*.
14. The rapid decay of the singlet in Figure 1f confirmed that it was not the persistent t-BuOO*.
