One teaspoon of red pepper flakes is equal to 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper. Since cayenne pepper is very hot, it should be used sparingly and to taste.
Well, using the Scoville rating (heat index) of one tablespoon of each type, it would be approximately as follows: 1 tablespoon of Jalapeno = 2500-5000 heat units 1 tablespoon of Cayenne = 30000-50000 heat units So a tablespoon of Cayenne is approximately 8-10 times hotter than the same amount of Jalapeno pepper. Since a tablespoon is equal to three teaspoons, one third of a teaspoon of Cayenne would be pretty close.

You could dilute it by adding more of everything else.
About 1/4 tsp of cayenne is equivalent to 1 tsp of red pepper flakes.
