The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of ethyl, isopropyl, and t-butyl cyanides into HCN and the corresponding defines have been studied in a seasoned silica vessel in a flow system in the absence and presence of toluene as inhibitor. The reactions are homogeneous and the unimolecular rate constants are expressible by the following Arrhenius equations:[Formula: see text]

The thermal decomposition of vinyl isopropyl ether in the presence of toluene has been studied in a flow system in the temperature range 447–521 °C. In this range, the data indicate a purely intramolecular decomposition into propylene and acetaldehyde, the activation energy for the reaction being in close agreement with that found for the decomposition of vinyl ethyl ether. At 570 °C. a minor free radical decomposition of the ether becomes apparent. Some qualitative studies of the decomposition of vinyl isobutyl ether are also reported.

The kinetics of the gas-phase thermolysis reaction of seven β-lactams and their thione analogues were investigated over the temperature range 533–603 K for the β-lactams and 463–542 K for the β-thiolactams. The average values of the energy of activation (Ea) (kJ mol−1) and Arrhenius log A (s–1) were, respectively, 170.8 ± 18.6 and 12.4 ± 1.6 for the lactams and 131.7 ± 18.2 and 11.0 ± 2.0 for the thione analogues. The entropy of activation (ΔS#) was negative for of the substrates and slightly positive for three. The rate constants (k) (s−1) were calculated for 510 K and compared for the two series of azetidinones. The effects of substituents on rates and the novel role played by the C=O and C=S moieties on the relative reactivities of the cyclic amides are rationalized on the basis of a formal retro[2+2]cycloaddition mechanism used earlier to explain the products of the gas-phase thermolysis reaction of the present azetidinones.

Flow system measurements are reported of the approximate rate constants for the gas phase reactions Si+ + O2 → SiO+ + O, SiO+ + N → Si+ + NO or NO+ + Si, and SiO+ + O → Si+ + O2. The constants are, respectively, <10−11, ∼1.5 × 10−10, ∼1.5 × 10−10, and 2 × 10−10, all in cm3 s−1.
