PREFACE

The past 25 years in chemical kinetics have seen major advances in studyiqg the mechanisms of complex chemical re­actions, in particular free radical reactions. Many differ­ent methods have been developed for quantitative studies of elementary chemical reactions. Thousands of rate constants have been measured, for hundreds of diverse chemical reac­tions. It is becoming more and more difficult for the chemist to orient himself in the voluminous and rapidly growing liter­ature of chemical reaction kinetics. This leads to major expenditures of time in searching out, collecting. and eval­uating quantitative kinetic data; to unnecessary repetition (duplication) of research; and to a situation in which the rich material already accumulated in the field of chemical kinetics is very often not fully utilized in comparing, interpreting, and analyzing new experimental data. There is a pressing need for the creation of a series of handbooks on reaction rate constants. Such work was begun several years ago at the initiative of V. N. Kondrat'ev, and is now going forward under his direction at the Institute of Chemical Physics of the USSR Academy of Sciences.

This book is devoted to liquid-phase, homolytic reactions. Part One contains data on monomolecular reactions in which molecules decompose to form radicals, as well as data on bi­molecular and trimolecular reactions that form free radicals. Also collected in Part One are data on the probability of radical escape into the bulk volume from a "cage" of solvent with various initiators, as well as values of the stoichio­metric inhibition coefficients for various phenols and aromatic amines that are used as free radical acceptors. In Part Two, rate constants are collected for reactions of decomposition, substitution, and addition of radicals to molecules, as well as radical recombination and disproportionation reactions. Part Three contains data on ion--molecule reactions that are accompanied by radical formation, as well as reactions of

free radicals with metal ions and acid anions, reactions of ion-radicals and solvated electrons, and ionic oxidation­reduction reactions with electron transfer. In this book, rate constant values are presented along with a statement of the conditions and a brief characterization of the method of measurement.

I wish to express deep gratitude to Academician V. N. Kondrat'ev for having inspired me to this not easy but useful task, and for having aided me with counsel. The last chapter of this book was written by V. N. Berdnikov. For assistance in collecting the reaction rate constants, I thank A. L. Buchachenko, R. L. Vardanyan, S. S. Ivanchev, N. F. Kazanskaya, G. M. Nazin, A. A. Shteinman, and V. Ya. Shlyapintokh. I also wish to express gratitute to Z. A. Denisova for painstaking work in preparing the manuscript for publication.
