Unexpectedly rapid vapor-phase reaction between bromine and methyl iodide

The overall reaction (1) occurs readily in the gas phase, even at room temperature in the dark. The reaction is much faster than the corresponding process and does not involve the normal bromination mechanism for gas phase reactions. Reaction (1) is probably heterogeneous although other mechanisms cannot be excluded. The overall reactions (1) (2) proceed, for all practical purposes, completely to the right-hand side in the vapor phase. The expected mechanism is (3) (4) (5) (6) (7) where reaction (3) is initiated thermally or photochemically. Reaction (4) is of interest because little kinetic data are available on reactions involving abstraction of halogen by halogen and also because an accurate determination of the activation energy E₄ would prmit us to calculate an acccurate value of the bond dissociation energy D(CH₃? I).     

Der Einfluß von cis- und trans-Effekten auf den Ligandenaustausch an gemischten Hexahalogenoosmaten(IV)

Influence of Cis and Trans Effects on the Ligand Exchange of Mixed Hexahalo Osmates(IV) The 24 possible ligand exchange reactions in the system of chloro-bromo osmates(IV) are investigated by kinetic measurements. The rate constants k_HBr (trans-series) or k_HCl (cis-series) determined in 5N HBr or 5N HCl at 80°C are summarized in the following equations The influence of relative cis and trans effects of ligands and of the geometry of complexes on the rates of ligand exchange is completely described by the three parameters s, y, z. This is supported by the close agreement between calculated and experimental concentration-time diagrams. The equations characterize both consecutive and parallel reactions and permit the calculation of ratios of isomers a t any time. The relative cis-effects forC1:Br:I are about 1:1.8:7, while the trans-effects are 1:6:1000. With the set of kinetic data an equilibrium diagram is derived from which the individual stability constants of the stepwise-formed mised-ligand complexes are deduced. There is good agreement between experimental and calculated values.

Thermal decomposition of cyclopentane and related compounds

Cyclopentane has been decomposed in comparative-rate single-pulse shock-tube experiments. The pyrolytic mechanism involves isomerization to 1-pentene and also a minor pathway leading to cyclopropane and ethylene. This is followed by the decomposition of 1-pentene and cyclopropane. The rate expressions over the temperature range of 1000°–1200° K are Details of the cyclopentane decomposition processes are considered, and it appears that if the trimethylene radical is an intermediate, then ΔH_f(trimethylene) ≤ 280 kJ/mol at 300°K.

The rate constant for t-C4H9 → H + i-C4H8 and the thermodynamic parameters of t-C4H9

The rate of the reverse reaction of the system has been measured in the range of 584–604 K from a study of the azomethane sensitized pyrolysis of isobutane. Assuming the published value for the rate constant of recombination of t-butyl we obtain Combination with our published data for k₁ permits the evaluation We have modified a previously published structural model of t-butyl by the inclusion of a barrier to free rotation of the methyl groups in order to calculate values of the entropy and enthalpy of t-butyl as a function of temperature. Using standard data for H and for i-C₄H₈ we obtain We have obtained other, independent values of this quantity by a reworking of published data using our new calculations of the entropy and enthalpy of t-butyl. There is substantial agreement between the different values with one exception, namely, that derived from published data on the equilibrium which is significantly lower than the other values. We conclude that the value obtained from the present work and a reworking of published data which involves the use of experimental data on t-butyl recombination is incompatible with the result based on iodination data.

Thermal stability of primary amines

Tertiary-amyl amine has been decomposed in single-pulse shock-tube experiments. Rate expressions for several of the important primary steps are This leads to D(CH₃? H) – D(NH₂? H) = ?10.5 kJ and D[(CH₃)₃C? H] – D[(CH₃)₂NH₂C? H] = + 6 kJ. The present and earlier comparative rate single-pulse shock-tube data when combined with high-pressure hydrazine decomposition results-(after correcting for fall off effects through RRKM calculations) gives where k_r(…) is the recombination rate involving the appropriate radicals. This suggests that in this context amino radical behavior is analogous to that of alkyl radicals. If this agreement is exact, then Rate expressions for the primary step in the decomposition of a variety of primary amines have been computed. In the case of benzyl amine where data exist the agreement is satisfactory. The following differences in bond energies have been estimated:
