Abstract
The rate of the bromine-exchange reaction between gallium bromide and n-propyl bromide in 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene and in nitrobenzene was measured at 19, 25 and 40 ℃, using n-propyl bromide labelled with Br-82. The results indicated that the exchange reaction was second order with respect to gallium bromide and first order with respect to n-propyl bromide. The third-order rate constant determined at 19℃ is 2.9 × 10-2 l2· mole-2·sec-1 in 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene and 4.5 × 10-3 l2·mole-2·sec-1 in nitrobenzene. The activation energy, the enthalpy of activation and the entropy of activation for the exchange reaction were also determined. Reaction mechanism for the bromine exchange of n-propyl bromide seemed to be similar to those observed in earlier studies with other alkyl bromides.
