Imidazole and 2‐chloropyridine were used as model molecules to investigate the acid hydrolysis kinetics of agrochemicals in high‐temperature water in a batch reactor system at 28 MPa. Pseudo‐first‐order hydrolysis reaction rate constants for the acid hydrolysis of Imidazole and 2‐chloropyridine were determined in the temperature ranges 200–600 and 400–575°C, respectively, at 28 MPa. Rate constants for both compounds increased with temperature with a local maximum observed at around 400°C due to changes in the physical properties of the solvent. Imidazole and 2‐chloropyridine conversions of 0.95 and 0. were respectively attained at the highest temperature after 30 min of reaction. © 2012 Canadian Society for Chemical Engineering
