This chapter i s a comprehensive overview of the progress in the f i e l d of generation, chemistry, and application of nitroxyl radicals and their precursors, for example, hindered amines of the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine series. Because of the impor tance of nitroxyl radicals to polymer stabi l i z a t i o n , this application i s discussed at length, while the others are touched upon briefly.
Discovery It is well known from chemical history that the discoveries of the first stable organic radicals, such as triphenylmethyl, diphenylpicrylhydrazyl, tri-tert-butylphenoxyl, and nitroxides are very significant contributions to theoretical chemistry. The relative stabilities of these radicals were attributed by chemists to the participation of an unpaired electron in conjugated 7r-electron systems. Classical stable radicals can thus be thought of as a superposition of many resonance structures with different localizations of an unpaired electron. The first stable radical obtained by Pilotti and Schwerin in 1901 in the pure state can be described by a variety of tautomeric and resonance structures as shown in Scheme 1. The development of the physical organic chemistry of stable radicals stimulated the investigation of relationships between their structures and reactivity. As a result, there developed the widely held concept that organic free radicals which do not possess a system of conjugated multiple bonds, such as 0097-6156/ 85/ 0280-0011 $07.50/ 0 © 1985 American Chemical Society Klemchuk; Polymer Stabilization and Degradation ACS Symposium Series; American Chemical Society: Washington, DC, 1985.

POLYMER STABILIZATION AND DEGRADATION
Complete information on application of the spin-trap method is given in summaries (70-72). Geophysics. Utilization of dynamic proton polarization phenomenon in nitroxyl radical solutions facilitated the improvement of spinprecision magnetometers by synchronizing the processes of nuclear polarization and precision measurement. Deuterated radical solutions serve as sensors in such instruments. Instruments of this type have already been produced in France. They find application in geophysical research, geological explorations and in searches for metallic objects under water. Oil Recovery. Nitroxyl radicals have found significant application in the oil production industry to control the rate of water encroachment of an oil pool. The method consists of the following: nitroxyl radicals are introduced into the water-injection well together with water, and water encroachment of the oil pool is followed by sampling and determining the nitroxyl radical content by EPR. Introduction of this method will permit increases in o i l recovery (73). Diamond Quality Assessment. The physical-chemical characteristics of nitroxyl radicals make it possible to evaluate crystal quality of diamonds, for example, with high sensitivity and reliability. It is possible to detect cracks on the crystal surface, to introduce quantitative criteria for estimation of the quality of diamonds, and to carry out defect differentiation (74). Antiwear. It has been shown that the addition of nitroxyl radicals of the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine series to lubricating compositions consisting of mineral oil and alkyl adipates (20%) considerably improves their lubricating properties (75). When utilizing the suggested compositions, the maximum load can be increased by 1.2-1.6 times for the same and sometimes even smaller friction factor. At the same time, the weight wearout rate is reduced by 1.2-2.0 times for bronze samples and by 2-8 times for steel samples. In conclusion, it is worth noting that nitroxyl radical applications have been limited heretofore by unjustifiably high prices. The prices of the simplest radicals in the Aldrich chemical catalog of 1982 were in the range of $1,000-$15,000 a kilogram. At present, they are being steadily reduced. In the authors opinion, the prices can be reduced even for small volumes of production at least by 1/50. This will lead to a wider investigation of their properties and, naturally, will extend the range of their application. 1
