N2  - Hydrogen bromide catalyses the gas-phase decomposition of 1,1- dimethoxy-ethane at 233-322° into methyl vinyl ether and methanol. The reaction, first-order in each reactant, is believed to be homogeneous and molecular.     The Arrhenius equation                     k2 = 1.3x1013exp(-22160/RT) s-1 cm3 mol-1  is followed. This decomposition is much faster than the analogous reactions of alcohols and ethers. The catalyst is effective when present in only 1% proportion.
