Kinetic data are reported for the thermal decay of colored transients formed by U.V. irradiation of aqueous solutions of 2‐nitrotoluene. The transients display an acid‐base equilibrium with a pK value of 3.7. The decay is catalyzed by acids and the following rate constants in liter sec‐l mole‐1 were evaluated for the base form of the transient reacting with an acid at 30.0°C: 3.5 × 10‐3 (H2O), 2.6×103 (CH3COOH), 4.7×104 (+NH3CH2COOH) and 4.2×105(H+).
