Abstract
The kinetics of gasโphase decomposition of methyl isocyanate have been investigated in the range of 427โ548ยฐC. Two decomposition routes are followed; the predominant one is a radicalโchain process giving CO, H~2~, and HCN as major products, which has an order of 1.5 and an Arrhenius equation given by log k(L^1/2^/mol^1/2^ยทs) = (13.12 ยฑ 0.06) โ (56,450 ยฑ 1670) cal/mol/2.303 RT. The minor route is the bimolecular formation of N,Nโฒโdimethylcarbodiimide and CO~2~, which from the low activation parameters E~a~ = 31.6 kcal, A = 10^5.30^ L^1/2^/mol^1/2^ยทs, and the reaction order of 1.57 appears to be heterogeneous.
