Notes:
Chemical kinetics of benzonitrile nitration with mixed acid is investigated in the temperature range 283-299 K. Pseudo-first-order rate constants are evaluated by means of rate experiments on homogeneous reacting mixtures having large stoichiometric excesses of nitric acid.The second-order kinetic constants for nitronium ion attack to the aromatic substrate are derived on the basis of the assessed nitration mechanism. An activation energy of 604 ± 37 kJ mol-1 is calculated for this reaction step. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
