Abstract

The pyrolyses of p‐nitrophenyl t‐butyl ether, p‐methoxyphenyl t‐butyl ether, p‐aminophenyl t‐butyl ether, p‐nitrophenyl t‐butyl sulfide, and propargyl t‐butyl sulfide have been studied in a stirred‐flow reactor over the temperature range 430–530°C and pressures in the range 7–14 torr, using toluene as carrier gas. The reactions yielded between 90 and 99% isobutene plus the corresponding phenol, thiophenol, or thiol as products. The first order rate coefficients for reactant consumption, based on isobutene production, followed the Arrhenius equations

p‐nitrophenyl t‐butyl ether
p‐methoxyphenyl t‐butyl ether
p‐aminophenyl t‐butyl ether:
p‐nitrophenyl t‐butyl sulfide
propargyl t‐‐butyl sulfide:

The results support a unimolecular elimination of the isobutene involving polar, four‐center cyclic transition states.

The elimination kinetics of ethyl, isopropyl and tert-butyl N,N-diethylcarbamates were investigated in a static reaction vessel over the temperature range 220-400 °C and pressure range 17-160 Torr. These reactions are homogeneous, unimolecular and follow a first-order rate law. The temperature depen
