Abstract
The kinetics of the gas‐phase elimination kinetics of CO~2~ from furoic acid was determined in a static system over the temperature range 415–455°C and pressure range 20–50 Torr. The products are furan and carbon dioxide. The reaction, which is carried out in vessels seasoned with allyl bromide and in the presence of the free‐radical suppressor toluene and/or propene, is homogeneous, unimolecular, and follows a first‐order rate law. The observed rate coefficient is expressed by the following Arrhenius equation: log k~1~(s^−1^) = (13.28 ± 0.16) − (220.5 ± 2.1) kJ mol^−1^ (2.303 RT)^−1^. Theoretical studies carried out at the B3LYP/6‐31++G** computational level suggest two possible mechanisms according to the kinetics and thermodynamic parameters calculated compared with experimental values. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
