β¦ Synopsis
A novel method for the kinetic study of a chemical reaction, HeI photoelectron spectroscopy (PES), is introduced. The prerequisites for the determination of the kinetic parameters of a chemical reaction using the PES method are: (1) there is a nonoverlapping band in the PE spectra of the reactant and the product; (2) the reaction course can be controlled by changing the temperature of the reaction system. For the isomerisation reaction CH3NC ~ CHaCN, the parameters obtained by the PES method are in agreement with previous results, indicating that PES is a reliable method to determine kinetic parameters of a chemical reaction. The relative photoionization cross-sections of the bands used for the sample studied are obtained from the value of the intercept in the kinetic equations.

The kinetic parameters of the complex reaction between phenol and formaldehyde in the presence of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) have been obtained by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The two dominant reactions appear to be addition of formaldehyde to phenol with formation of o-hydroxymethyl-phenol
The reactions (1) ( 2 ) have been studied competitively over the range of 2%182'C by photolysis of mixtures of C12 + C2F5I + CH4. We obtain log k l / k 2 = (0.96 f 0.06) + (1210 f 440)/0 where 0 = 2.303RT J/mol. The use of published data on reaction (2) leads to log (kl(cms/mol sec) = (13.96 f 0.2)
The kinetics of the reaction CH3 + 0 2 (+M) -+ CH302 (+MI have been studied, using the technique of flash photolysis and kinetic spectroscopy to follow the methyl radical concentration. The order of the reaction lies between 2 and 3 throughout the range of pressure from 25 to 380 torr at 22"C, and t
