- The experimental results of Waring and Morton on the thermal decomposition of tin tetramethyl have been re-examined and shown to fit in better with a three-halves order rate constant and a free radical kinetic mechanism than with a unimolecular rate constant and a molecular rearrangement mechanism put forward by the authors. Also, the results of Helm and Mack on the thermal decomposition of silicon tetramethvl in the low pressure region. not amenable to first or second order kinetic expressions, have satisfactorily been interpreted terms of three-halve; order reaction involving a free radical mechanism.
