Abstract
In the photolysis of ethylene at 185 nm the rate of formation of hexene-1 has been measured. The ratio of the rates of formation of hexene-1 to butane varied from 0.6 to 1.4 at 298 K and fell to about 0.25 at 153 K. It is suggested that hexene-1 is formed by successive additions to ethylene to give hexamethylene which isomerizes to hexene-1.[Formula: see text]This interpretation is consistent with the effect of pressure of ethylene and absorbed light intensity on its rate of formation.
