β¦ Synopsis
Chemical kinetics of benzonitrile nitration with mixed acid is investigated in the temperature range 283-299 K. Pseudo-first-order rate constants are evaluated by means of rate experiments on homogeneous reacting mixtures having large stoichiometric excesses of nitric acid.
The second-order kinetic constants for nitronium ion attack to the aromatic substrate are derived on the basis of the assessed nitration mechanism. An activation energy of 604 2 37 kJ mol-l is calculated for this reaction step.
