Notes:
The thermal decomposition of the title compound has been studied in the gas phase in the temperature range of 584-634 K. The decomposition was found to be a first-order homogeneous process yielding 2-methylbuta-1,3-diene and formaldehyde. The rate constants obtained at 11 temperatures within the quoted range fitted the Arrhenius equation \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ {\rm log}k/({\rm s}^{ - 1}) = 14.619 \pm 0.030 - (209.48 \pm 0.35)\,{\rm kJ}\,{\rm mol}^{ - 1} /RT\,\ln \,10 $$\end{document} The decomposition is probably unimolecular and concerted.
