Abstract
AbstractThe rate constant for the bimolecular combination of benzyl radicals in cyclohexane and toluene is determined as a function of temperature. Further, it is studied in cyclohexane–toluene mixtures of different compositions. In the entire range covered, 9.8 × 108 ⩽ 2kt ⩽ 9.0 × 109M−1·sec−1, the data are very well described by the Smoluchowski equation for a diffusion‐controlled reaction to ground‐state products using a spin statistical factor of 1/4, a temperature‐ and solvent‐independent reaction distance, and the known diffusion coefficient of toluene.
