The kinetics of the reaction of chloranil with tri-n-dodecyl amine have been investigated in the temperature range 100-115.5°C and in the concentration range 0.036-0.0697 M.
The kinetics follow a simple second-order mechanism. The energy of activation is 19.7 Kcal./mole. The reaction product is a quaternary amnonium salt, (trichloro-p-benzoquinonyl)-tri-n-dodecyl ammonium chloride. The rate constant is given by:
k = 5.74 x 10(10) exp(-9950/T) (minute)(-1) (mole)(-1)
