Absolute rate constants for the liquid phase autoxidation of some organic sulfides at 30 °C have been measured. The reactivities of organic sulfides towards t-butylperoxy radicals are equal to or somewhat less than the reactivities of structurally analogous ethers. The α-alkylthiylalkylperoxy radicals appear to be about 3–5 times more reactive in hydrogen atom abstraction than the α-alkoxyalkylperoxy radicals.

Liquid 1,2-dichloroethane has been chlorinated by dissolved chlorine to a succession of chloroethanes up to the ultimate hexachloroethane. The results of both batch and continuous stirred tank reactor systems have been analysed by computer techniques to give a set of relative rate constants from which one can predict the product composition for a given chlorine uptake, the aim in this work being to optimize the production of tetrachloroethanes. An unusual feature of the kinetics is that 1,1,1,2- and 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethanes provide alternative pathways between 1,1,2-trichloroethane and pentachloroethane.

A new method for studying cluster-cluster interactions is introduced which involves merging mass-selected beams of oppositely charged cluster ions with an electrostatic quadrupole deflector. Recombination is monitored by measuring the rate of fast neutral production. Relative rate constants have been measured for the reaction of H 3O+( H 2 O )n+ OH −( H 2 O )m as a function of cluster size (m=n=0–3), which display a pronounced enhancement with clustering. Relative rate constants have also been measured as a function of center-of-mass collision energy for a heavily clustered reaction (n=3, m=3) and a lightly clustered reaction (n=1, m=0) revealing that clustering produces a dramatic change in the reaction mechanism.

Absolute rate constants have been measured for the autoxidation of a large number of hydrocarbons at 30 °C. The chain-propagating and chain-terminating rate constants depend on the structure of the hydrocarbon and also on the structure of the chain-carrying peroxy radical. With certain notable exceptions which are mainly due to steric hindrance, the rate constants for hydrogen-atom abstraction increase in the order primary < secondary < tertiary; and, for compounds losing a secondary hydrogen atom, the rate constants increase in the order unactivated < acyclic activated by a single π-electron system < cyclic activated by a single Π-system < acyclic activated by two π-systems < cyclic activated by two π-systems. The rate constants for chain termination by the self-reaction of two peroxy radicals generally increase in the order tertiary peroxy radicals < acyclic allylic secondary  [Formula: see text] cyclic secondary  [Formula: see text] acyclic benzylic secondary < primary peroxy radicals < hydroperoxy radicals.

Reaction of oxygen atoms with 1,3-butadiene has been investigated at room temperature. It is found that it conforms to the general mechanism established previously for the analogous reactions of monoolefins. Only 1,2-addition occurs, and the addition products, butadiene monoxide and 3-butenal, possess excess energy when formed as a result of high heats of reaction. The pressure dependence of the formation of the addition products yields the values of the "lifetimes" of the initially produced "hot" molecules. The relative rate constants have been determined at 25 and 127 °C and from these the relative values of the Arrhenius parameters have been calculated.

The reactions of atomic hydrogen with propene, butene-2, and trimethylethylene, and with mixtures of these olefins with ethylene have been studied using flow apparatus. It was found that under the experimental conditions intermediate alkyl radicals reacted practically only with atomic hydrogen. This made possible a kinetic evaluation of the results yielding numerical values of several relative rate constants of competing intermediate reactions.

The ratio of rate constants for exchange at the methylene and methyl positions of butanone, [Formula: see text], is shown to be near 1.69 in 1:1 acetic acid–acetate buffer; nearly twice the value (0.86) for deuterioxide catalysis at 54.8°. Methods of obtaining rate constants for acetate catalysis from composite rates (acetate and deuterioxide), or from rates in buffered media, are shown to be adequate for estimating rate ratios.Detailed temperature dependence of the relative rate constants for either system is not yet available but the effects are known to be small. For butanone enolizations the isokinetic temperature is in the neighborhood of 35°, when reaction is catalyzed by deuterioxide in aqueous media.
