The thermal decompositions of tetramethyltetrazene (TMT) and tetraethyltetrazene (TET) have been studied using a flow system. It is shown that both the decompositions occur at, or above, the limiting pressure for unimolecularity, and Arrhenius parameters for both decompositions are obtained. The decomposition mechanism is discussed in relation to the Arrhenius parameters and theories of three-fragment decompositions. Preliminary values of some kinetic parameters for some reactions of dialkylamino radicals are presented.
