The kinetics and stoicheiometry of the decomposition of aqueous solutions of sulphur dicyanide have been studied at temperatures between 0-70 �C and in media ranging from dilute perchloric acid to pH 7. The predominant reaction is nucleophilic substitution at carbon, but in perchloric acid solutions an alternative reaction path has been revealed.

The kinetics of the oxidation of tetrahydrofuran by ruthenium tetroxide in aqueous perchloric acid solutions have been investigated. The rate of reaction is found to be directly dependent on the concentrations of oxidant and reductant, but inversely dependent on the acidity of the medium. A mechanism involving hydride abstraction in the rate determining step was found to be consistent with the evidence obtained from isotopic labeling and an analysis of the activation parameters (ΔH≠ = 14.0 kcal/mol, ΔS≠ = −18.4 e.u.) of the reaction. This conclusion is further substantiated by noting the similarity between the reactions of ruthenium tetroxide with alcohols and ethers.

Spectral and chemical data are presented which show that bromine and bromate ion in acid solution are unstable with respect to, formation of hypobromous acid. At higher concentrations of hypobromous acid, the reaction is reversed, and this species decomposes relatively rapidly to bromine and bromate. Some aspects of the kinetics of these reactions are described, from which deductions are made regarding possible mechanisms of the two processes.
