I want to do an ATRP reaction, synthesize an ATRP initiator, use DMF as a solvent, and mix DMF, BIBB and TEA to turn red. Why does it turn red? Xylene has been used as a solvent before, and there is no color change.
Dear Yang Yu, generally speaking the influence the redox kinetics of Cu and its efficiency, and the choice of the ligand. Please check the following documents. My Regards
