The unimolecularity of the thermal dehydrogenation of cyclopentene has been confirmed using the technique of very low-pressure pyrolysis (VLPP). Application of RRKM theory shows that the experimental unirnolecular rate constants obtained over the temperature range of 942O-1152OK are consistent with

โฆ Synopsis
Abstract
The thermal decomposition of tโbutylmethyl ether has been studied using the VLPP technique. The recommended Arrhenius parameters for the molecular elimination, reaction (1), are A(800ยฐK) = 10^1 3, 9^ sec^โ1^ and E~a~ (800ยฐK) = 59.0 ยฑ 1.0 kcal/mole. No radical reactions occur under the conditions used.

These parameters are in good agreement with earlier experimental work and with theoretical estimates of both A and E.
