KINETIC STUDY THE 2,2-DIMETHYL-3-BUTEN-1-YL TO 2-METHYL-4-PENTEN-2-YL RADICAL REARRANGEMENT IN THE TEMPERATURE RANGE 37-74 deg C

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(00)98427-2

The tin hydride method was used to determine the rates of the title rearrangement over the temperature range 37-74 deg C; the data was combined with the previously reported low temperature kinetic studies to give a new temperature dependent function: at 25 deg C the calculated rate constant is 5E6 sec^-1.
