The secondary β-deuterium isotope effect (kH/kD) has been measured over a range of temperature for the water solvolysis reactions of isopropyl methanesulphonate, p-toluenesulphonate, and bromide. In these cases the isotope effect is due to a difference in entropies of activation of the isotopic analogues rather than a difference in the enthalpies of activation. It is suggested that the observed isotope effect is due to internal rotational effects of the methyl groups in the isopropyl radical, and the lack of an isotope effect on the enthalpy of activation is accounted for by a cancellation of an effect from this source and one from zero-point energy.

The temperature dependence of the 13C kinetic isotope of the α-carbon in benzyl bromide (1) and in 1-bromo-1-phenylethane (2) has been measured for reaction with alkoxide ion. For these bimolecular displacements, a relatively large temperature effect was found, comparable to that reported for other SN2 processes. A reexamination of the reaction of 2 with EtO− has shown an earlier value for k12/k13 to be in error.
