A general mechanism was proposed for the title reactions which describes the kinetics of hydroperoxide decomposition as well as product accumulation throughout the whole reaction period in an analytical form. The following catalytic steps were included:where the deactivation takes place as a result of radical–catalyst interaction inside the cage. The resulting equations give satisfactory description of the literature data in the case of various catalysts and hydroperoxides.
