The Hg(3P1) photosensitized decomposition of formic acid proceeds by two intramolecular rearrangement reactions, leading respectively to H2O and CO, and to H2 and CO2. No free radicals are produced. The decomposition reactions of methyl formate and of acetic acid proceed predominantly by the formation of free radicals, but intramolecular rearrangements also occur to a significant extent. For both these latter compounds the evidence suggests the occurrence of two modes of dissociation into free radicals:[Formula: see text]No evidence for the alternative mode of dissociation[Formula: see text]was found.

Abstract Three confirmatory tests have been devised to identify aflatoxin B±. Portions of the isolated toxin are treated with formic acid-thionyl chloride, acetic acid-thionyl chloride, and trifluoroacetic acid, respectively, and aliquots of the three fluorescent reaction products are spotted on thin-layer chromatography plates. Standards treated with each of the three reagents, plus an untreated standard, are spotted on the same plate, and after development the spots are compared under ultraviolet light.

Different Temperatures

endo-Norbornyl-2-d p-bromobenzenesulfonate was synthesized and the isotope effects, as measured by kH/kD, were determined over a range of temperatures for solvolyses in 30% water – 70% dioxane, acetic acid, and formic acid. Values of kH/kD are of the order of 1.20. The data appear to indicate slightly higher isotope effects as the solvents are changed from aqueous dioxane to acetic acid to formic acid, as well as somewhat higher isotope effects at lower temperatures. Possible mechanistic implications of these results are presented. Relative titrimetric acetolysis rates, kexo/kendo, at different temperatures, and enthalpies and entropies of activation for these acetolyses are evaluated and discussed.
