Abstract
The equilibrium constant for reaction (1) has been determined in neutral solution to be (1.4±0.1)×105 d mol-1, with forward and reverse rate constants, k1 and k-1, of (8.5±0.7)×109 d mol-1 s-1 and (6.0±0.5)×104 s-1, respectively.
At 25°C the rate constants for the reactions of Cl
Nsbd and Cl
2- were measured to be (2.5±0.3)×10
5 s
-1 and (1.3±0.1)×10
3 s
-1 with water and (6.5±0.6)×10
8 d mol
-1 s
-1 and
ca. 0, within experimental error, with 2-methyl-propan-2-ol. Deviation from the equilibrium values of [Cl
Nsbd] and [Cl
2-] in the early stages of the reactions was investigated and shown to account for the discrepancy between the value of
K1 determined here and a previous estimate from our laboratory.
