The chloride-chloride exchange reaction in arenesulfonyl chlorides was investigated experimentally and theoretically by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The second order rate constants and activation parameters of this identity reaction were determined for 22 variously substituted arenesulfonyl chlorides using radio-labeled Et4N36Cl. The chloride exchange rates of 11 sulfonyl chlorides bearing para-and meta-substituents (σ constants from −0.66 to +0.43) in the aromatic ring followed the Hammett equation with a ρ-value of +2.02. The mono- and di-ortho-alkyl substituted sulfonyl chlorides exhibit an enhanced reactivity although both inductive and steric effects lower the reaction rate. The DFT calculations of their structures together with X-ray data showed that an increased reactivity is mainly due to a peculiar, rigid, strongly compressed and sterically congested structure. The DFT studies of the title reaction revealed that it proceeds via a single transition state according to the SN2 mechanism. The analogous fluoride exchange reaction occurs according to the addition–elimination mechanism (A–E) and formation of a difluorosulfurandioxide intermediate. The reliability of the calculations performed was supported by the fact that the calculated relative rate constants and activation parameters correlate well with the experimental kinetic data.

Kinetics Of

Liquid 1,2-dichloroethane has been chlorinated by dissolved chlorine to a succession of chloroethanes up to the ultimate hexachloroethane. The results of both batch and continuous stirred tank reactor systems have been analysed by computer techniques to give a set of relative rate constants from which one can predict the product composition for a given chlorine uptake, the aim in this work being to optimize the production of tetrachloroethanes. An unusual feature of the kinetics is that 1,1,1,2- and 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethanes provide alternative pathways between 1,1,2-trichloroethane and pentachloroethane.

Electrostatic Quadrupole

A new method for studying cluster-cluster interactions is introduced which involves merging mass-selected beams of oppositely charged cluster ions with an electrostatic quadrupole deflector. Recombination is monitored by measuring the rate of fast neutral production. Relative rate constants have been measured for the reaction of H 3O+( H 2 O )n+ OH −( H 2 O )m as a function of cluster size (m=n=0–3), which display a pronounced enhancement with clustering. Relative rate constants have also been measured as a function of center-of-mass collision energy for a heavily clustered reaction (n=3, m=3) and a lightly clustered reaction (n=1, m=0) revealing that clustering produces a dramatic change in the reaction mechanism.

Oxygen Atoms

Reaction of oxygen atoms with 1,3-butadiene has been investigated at room temperature. It is found that it conforms to the general mechanism established previously for the analogous reactions of monoolefins. Only 1,2-addition occurs, and the addition products, butadiene monoxide and 3-butenal, possess excess energy when formed as a result of high heats of reaction. The pressure dependence of the formation of the addition products yields the values of the "lifetimes" of the initially produced "hot" molecules. The relative rate constants have been determined at 25 and 127 °C and from these the relative values of the Arrhenius parameters have been calculated.

Competing Reactions

The reactions of atomic hydrogen with propene, butene-2, and trimethylethylene, and with mixtures of these olefins with ethylene have been studied using flow apparatus. It was found that under the experimental conditions intermediate alkyl radicals reacted practically only with atomic hydrogen. This made possible a kinetic evaluation of the results yielding numerical values of several relative rate constants of competing intermediate reactions.

Relative Rate Constants

The ratio of rate constants for exchange at the methylene and methyl positions of butanone, [Formula: see text], is shown to be near 1.69 in 1:1 acetic acid–acetate buffer; nearly twice the value (0.86) for deuterioxide catalysis at 54.8°. Methods of obtaining rate constants for acetate catalysis from composite rates (acetate and deuterioxide), or from rates in buffered media, are shown to be adequate for estimating rate ratios.Detailed temperature dependence of the relative rate constants for either system is not yet available but the effects are known to be small. For butanone enolizations the isokinetic temperature is in the neighborhood of 35°, when reaction is catalyzed by deuterioxide in aqueous media.

Activity Sequence

The catalytic mechanism and activation energies of metal chlorides RuCl3, AuCl3, and BaCl2 for 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE)-acetylene exchange reaction were studied with a combination of density functional theory (DFT) calculations and experiments. Two reported reaction pathways were discussed and acetylene-DCE complex pathway was supported through adsorption energy analysis. The formation of the second vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) was proven to be the rate-determining step, according to energy profile analysis. Activity sequence of BaCl2 > RuCl3 > AuCl3 was predicted and experimentally verified. Furthermore, reversed activity sequences of this reaction and commercialized acetylene hydrochlorination reaction were explained: the adsorption abilities of reactants are important for the former reaction, but chlorine transfer is important for the latter.
