Abstract
The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of 2,3‐dimethyl‐3‐pentyl acetate have been studied at a temperature range of 212–260°C and a pressure range of 30–300 mm Hg. The olefins produced are 2‐ethyl‐3‐methyl‐1‐butene, 3,4‐dimethyl‐trans‐2‐pentene, 3,4‐dimethyl‐cis‐2‐pentene, and 2,3‐dimethyl‐2‐pentene. The reaction is homogeneous, obeys first‐order law, and the value of the rate constant is given by the Arrhenius equation
The directions of elimination and their corresponding partial rates are best explained in terms of purely steric factors.

The kinetics of 2-bromo-3-methylbutyric acid in the gas phase was studied over the temperature range of 309.3-357.0"C and pressure range of 15.5-100.0 torr. This process, in seasoned static reaction vessels and in the presence of the free radical inhibitor cyclohexene, is homogeneous, unimolecular,
The rate coefficients for the gas-phase pyrolyses of a series of structurally related secondary acetates have been measured in a static system over the temperature range of 289.1-3595°C and the pressure range 50.0-203.0 torr. The temperature dependence of the rate coefficients is given by the follow
Satisfactory kinetic determinations of several aliphatic 1,3-diols were difficult to obtain. Moreover the product distributions from each of these substrates suggest complex parallel mechanisms. However, the elimination kinetic of 2,4-dimethyl-2,4-pentanediol has been measured over the temperature r
