Abstract
The rates at which methyl chloride, methyl bromide and methyl iodide react with the hydroxyl and the thiosulphate ions in water have been measured at various concentrations and temperatures. The apparent energies of activation in both series increase in the same direction as the dipole moment of the methyl halide. The results are discussed in terms of a theory of the kinetics of the reactions between ions and polar molecules in solution.
