Abstract

The reaction of alkyl halides with diphenylamine in different solvents has been studied. The kinetics of the reaction of methyl iodide with diphenylamine and di-p-tolylamine has been measured in NN-dimethylformamide. This reaction takes place by a bimolecular substitution mechanism between the two un-ionised reactant molecules.
