Abstract
The rate constant for the bimolecular combination of benzyl radicals in cyclohexane and toluene is determined as a function of temperature. Further, it is studied in cyclohexane–toluene mixtures of different compositions. In the entire range covered, 9.8 × 10^8^ ⩽ 2__k__~t~ ⩽ 9.0 × 10^9^M^−1^·sec^−1^, the data are very well described by the Smoluchowski equation for a diffusion‐controlled reaction to ground‐state products using a spin statistical factor of 1/4, a temperature‐ and solvent‐independent reaction distance, and the known diffusion coefficient of toluene.

## Abstract Rate constants for the self‐ and cross‐termination of the isopropylol radical [(CH~3~)~2~ĊOH] and its anion [(CH~3~)~2~ĊO^−^] in aqueous solution are determined by kinetic electron spin resonance. Whereas the self‐termination of the neutral radical occurs close to the diffusion‐controll
The kinetics of the acqueous-phase reactions of the free radicals .OH, .Cl,, and SO; . with the halogenated acetates, CHzFCOO-, CHF2COO-, CF3COO-, and with CHzClC00-, CHClzC00-, CC13COOwere investigated. Generally, the reactivity decreases with increasing halogen substitution and is in the order k(.
Rate constants have been measured for the reactions of the sulfate radical, SO4'-, with alkanes, alkenes, alcohols, ethers, and amines in 95% acetonitrile solution. The rate constants were in the range of lo6 L mol-l s-l for the abstraction reactions and lo7 -lo9 L mol-' s-l for the addition and ele
Rate constants for one-electron oxidation by the methylperoxyl radicals (CH302, HOCHzO;, -O2CCHz0;, and CClsO;) in aqueous solutions have been measured by pulse radiolysis and found to be in the range of 3 x lo5 to 6 x lo8 M-' sK1 for compounds with redox potentials between 0.6 and 0.1 V.
