Abstract: | Laser temperature jump and shock tube techniques have been used to measure the monomer-dimer relaxation time in the gas phase. With the former method, the lifetime of the cyclic dimer of acetic acid is found to increase from 3 μs at 315 K to 16 μs at 285 K. The activation energy has been determined to be 11.4 ± 0.8 kcal mol?1. A step-wise mechanism of dissociation is discussed. |
