Conclusions

An analysis of the experimental data on the decomposition of aliphatic nitro compounds reveals fine effects of the influence of the structure of the molecule on the preexponential factor of the reaction rate constant. The value of the latter depends on the contribution of three factors, manifested in the formation of the activated complex: liberation of the internal rotation relative to the dissociating C-N bond, a decrease in the frequencies of the deformational vibrations associated with this bond, and rotation of the alkyl groups next to the reaction center.
