Fze. 1. Effect of the intensity of agitation of the reaction mass on the yield (1-6) and
rate (7) of oxych]orination of ethy]benzene. Temperature 200, intensity of agitation,
rpm: 1--0; 2--100, 3--200; 4--300; 6--400; 6--600.

does not exceed 18%, while an increase in the intensity of agitation to 400
rev/min (curve 5) increases yield to 91/o. A further increase of agitation
intensity to 600 rev/min has no effect on the yield of chlo~oethylbenzene.
To obtain comparable results by a di~erential method, initial reaction rates
were calculated at dii~erent intensities of agitation.
A marked increase in reaction rate in the interval of 200-400 rev/min
(Fig. 1, curve 7), apparently, points to a transition of the reaction from the
diffusion (<200 rev/mi'n) into the kinetic range (>400 rev/min).
Oxychlorination of aromatic hydrocarbons consists of two step-by-step
reactions: interaction of hydrogen peroxide with hydl'ogen chloride takes
place in the first stage to form chlorine
2HCI~-H20= -+ CI~-2tt20,

in the second stage of the process the chlorine separated reacts with hydroca2o
