The absolute rate constant for the reaction of phenyl radical with acetylene has been measured at 20 torr total pressure in the temperature range of 297 to 523 K using the cavity-ring-down technique. These new kinetic data could be quantitatively correlated with the data obtained earlier with a rela

โฆ Synopsis
An absolute value of k, of ethyl radicals at 860 f 17ยฐK of 4.5 X l o 9 M-l.sec-' was determined under VLPP conditions, where the value of k,/k," should be about M. Thus k,"(M-'.sec-') -10' 0 at 860ยฐK. An error of as much as a factor of 2 in k, would be surprising, but possible.
The value of lO'OM-'.sec-l seems to be a factor of from 2 to 5 too high to be compatible with extensive data on the reverse reaction and the accepted thermochemistry. Changes in the heat of formation and entropy of the ethyl radical can change the situation somewhat, but even these changes when applied to the work of Hiatt and Benson [3] indicate that ethyl combination should be -More work is necessary if a better value is desired.

Absolute rate constants have been measured for the reactions of trichloromethylperoxyl radicals with cyclohexane, cyclohexene, and hexamethylbenzene. The CClsO, radicals were produced by pulse radiolysis of air-saturated CCl, solutions containing various amounts of the hydrocarbons. The rate constan
