The Unstable Species and the Isotope Effect in the Pyrolysis of Diborane in a Shock Tube

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

From American Chemical Society 145th National Meeting, New York, Sept. 1963. The pyrolysis of diborane was examined using a chemical shock tube as a reactor. Additional evidence for the existence of hexaborane-12 and heptaborane- 11 and -13 was obtained. The presence of a large net normal isotope effect in the formation of tetraborane and hexaborane and a net inverse isotope effect in the formation of pentaborane-9 are observed. A mechanism, consisting of a series of competitive reactions and eqailibria, in which tetraboraue is the precursor of pentaborane-11 and hexaborane but not of pentaborane-9 is shown to be compatible with the … continued below

Data obtained by examining the pyrolysis of various mixtures of boron hydrides are also consistent with the mechanism. (auth)
