Abstract
The thermal decomposition
of 2-methylbutan-2-ol has been investigated from 432 to 570�C, over initial
pressures ranging from 26 to 288 mmHg, and in the presence of toluene from 519
to 570�C. The decomposition is first order and homogeneous, involving the unimolecular elimination of water from the alcohol.
2-Methylbut-1-ene and 2-methylbut-2-ene decompose through a consecutive
reaction under these conditions. The Arrhenius
equation giving the variation of the first-order rate constants with
temperature was found to be (R = 8.31 J mol-1 K-1)
k = 1011.8 exp(- 23OOOO/RT) s-l
