THE REACTIONS OF METHYL RADICALS WITH FORMAMIDE, N-METHYL AND NN-DIMETHYLFORMAMIDE,

Abstract

The following rate constants were obtained for the abstraction of hydrogen atoms from formamides by methyl radicals: formamide (170-247C) log k(mole c.c./sec) = 10.5 - (6,600/2.3 RT); N-methylformamide (161-287C) log k (mole c.c./sec) = 10.9 - (7,600/2.3 RT); NN-dimethylformamide (120-298C) log k (mole c.c./sec) = 11.4 - (8,300/2.3 RT). These results are compared with methyl-radical reactions with aldehydes and formates. (Author)
