WHAT DOES AUTOXIDATION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Autoxidation

Autoxidation is any oxidation that occurs in open air or in presence of oxygen and/or UV radiation and forms peroxides and hydroperoxides. A classic example of autoxidation is that of simple ethers like diethyl ether, whose peroxides can be dangerously explosive. It can be considered to be a slow, flameless combustion of materials by reaction with oxygen. Autoxidation is important because it is a useful reaction for converting compounds to oxygenated derivatives, and also because it occurs in situations where it is not desired. Although virtually all types of organic materials can undergo air oxidation, certain types are particularly prone to autoxidation, including unsaturated compounds that have allylic or benzylic hydrogen atoms; these materials are converted to hydroperoxides by autoxidation.

Definition of autoxidation in the English dictionary

The definition of autoxidation in the dictionary is oxidation by exposure to atmospheric oxygen. Other definition of autoxidation is oxidation that will only occur when another oxidation reaction is taking place in the same system.
