The rate of the bromine-exchange reaction between gallium bromide and i-butyl bromide in 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene or nitrobenzene was measured at 19, 25 and $40^{\circ}C$, using i-butyl bromide labelled with Br-82. The results indicated that the exchange reaction was second order with respect to gallium bromide and first order with respect to i-butyl bromide. The third-order rate constant determined at $19{\circ}C$ was $3.28{\times}10^{-2}l^2{\cdot}mole^{-2}{\cdot}sec^{-1}$ in 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene and $9.25{\times}10^{-3}l^2{\cdot}mole^{-2}{\cdot}sec^{-1}$ in nitrobenzene. The activation energy, the enthalpy of activation and the entropy of activation for the exchange reaction were also determined.
