Notes:
The rate coefficients of thermal decomposition of peroxyacetic nitric anhydride (PAN) and peroxymethacrylic nitric anhydride (MPAN) were measured over the temperature range 302-323 K. The resulting Arrhenius expressions were k = 1017.4±0.4 exp(-28.5 ± 0.5/RT) for PAN, and k = 1016.2±0.7 exp(-26.8 ± 1.0/RT) for MPAN, where the activation energy is in Kcal/mol. These results are in good agreement with previous studies of PAN and other PAN-type compounds, and imply that energies of RC(O)OO—NO2 bonds are relatively independent of the nature of R.
