Bulletin of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, Division of chemical science Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    A study has been made of the electrophilic replacement of mercury by iodine in benzylmercury chloride.

  2. 2.

    The reaction kinetics have been measured by two methods: spectrophotometrically and titrometrically.

  3. 3.

    The reaction of benzylmercury chloride with iodine in the presence of cadmium iodide in 70% aqueous dioxane is second order over-all, and first order with respect to each of the components.

  4. 4.

    The parameters of the Arrhenius equation have been determined: E=10.8 kcal/mole, log A=7.7, and entropy of activation A S= -23.3 entropy units at 20°.
