It needs to be recognized that not all double bonds react in free radical addition polymerization. In the case of the polymerization of methyl methacrylate, there is always a certain amount of residual monomer. This may have deleterious biological consequences. In the case of dimethacrylates, the degree of conversion of –C=C– bonds may influence biocompatibility, mechanical properties and durability of the material [11].

AOPs refer to chemical procedures that are able to generate highly reactive free radicals, especially the hydroxyl and hydroperoxyl radicals (⋅OH, ⋅HOO) and the superoxide radical anion (⋅O2−), which can degrade many persistent organic pollutants. Once generated, these free radicals can react with organic compounds by electron transfer, radical addition and/or hydrogen abstraction [26]. The AOPs have certain advantages such as high reaction rates, elevated oxidation potential and non-selective oxidation, which means that multiple pollutants can be simultaneously treated [26–28]. Figure 3.2 shows a scheme with the most common AOPs used to degrade different organic compounds [26].

Inspired by this work, Rokade and Prabhu discovered that heating of cinnamic acids 53 with aromatic sulfinic acid sodium salts 54 in the presence of a catalytic amount of |Cu(ClO4)2+6H2O, 1,10-phenanthroline as a ligand, and TBHP as an oxidant in MeCN afforded corresponding vinyl sulfones 55 in modestly poor to good yields (Scheme 25) [41]. It is important to note that the reaction is effective only with electron-rich cinnamic acids (except with OH and NH2 substitution). Interestingly, the products were isolated exclusively in the E-form even from cis-cinnamic acids. A gram-scale reaction was also successfully reported. Mechanistically the reactions proceed via the radical addition-elimination mechanism (Scheme 26).
