Abstract
Rate constants as a function of both temperature and pressure were calculated for the title reactions using RRKM theory in conjunction with a modified Gorin transition state. The modification introduces a hindrance parameter which accounts for repulsive interactions between the rotating fragments. At the highest stratospheric pressures (∼50 torr) and at stratospheric temperature (∼220°K), the extent of “falloff” from first‐order [N~2~] dependence is ∼70% for reaction (1) and ∼35% for reaction (2).
