The ratios of rate constants for disproportionation to combination have been measured for ethyl radicals and for i-propyl radicals in liquid methane between −181 and −94 °C. The radicals were generated by γ-radiolysis of dilute methane solutions of ethylene-d4 or propylene-d6. The activation energy for combination was found to exceed that for disproportionation by 290 ± 30 cal mol−1 for ethyl radicals and by 255 ± 25 cal mol−1 for i-propyl radicals. In both cases the disproportionation—combination ratio in the liquid, extrapolated to room temperature, is greater than that in the gas phase by a factor of about 2.5. These results are interpreted as indicating that disproportionation and combination reactions proceed by way of different transition states.

The entropies of activation related to the reactions of aqueous malachite green with the nucleophiles water, hydroxide, hydrazine, ammonia, hypochlorite, and sulphite have been calculated from the temperature dependence of the rate constants appropriate to these reactions. The entropies of the transition states for these reactions have been characterized and the transition states shown to be 'reactant like'. A similar correlation, based on data for a series of nucleophiles attacking methyl iodide, suggests that the transition states for the SN2 displacement reactions are also 'reactant like' with respect to the attacking nucleophile. A relationship between two distinct parameters each of which is related to the position of transition states along the reaction coordinate is considered.

The rate constants and products for the reactions of atomic Cl and O3 molecule with 3-methyl-3-buten-2-one (MBO332) and 3-methyl-3-penten-2-one (MPO332) were determined in a 100 L Teflon chamber at 293 ± 1 K and atmospheric pressure.
