Succinic acid peroxide(CAT: M068128) is an organic peroxide compound derived from succinic acid. It is characterized by its reactive peroxide group, which imparts strong oxidizing properties. Due to its reactivity, succinic acid peroxide is often used in organic synthesis as an oxidizing agent and in polymerization reactions as an initiator. Its application is primarily found in chemical manufacturing processes where controlled oxidation is required. However, like other organic peroxides, it must be handled with care, as it can be unstable and potentially hazardous under certain conditions, particularly when exposed to heat, friction, or shock.
