Abstract:The
reaction of the OH radical with cyclopentadiene (C5H6) was investigated at room temperature using multiplexed
photoionization mass spectrometry. OH radicals in their ground electronic
state were generated in the gas phase by 248 nm photolysis of H2O2 or 351 nm photolysis of HONO. Analysis of photoion
spectra and temporal profiles reveal that at room temperature and
over the 4–8 Torr pressure range, the resonance-stabilized
5-hydroxycyclopent-2-en-1-yl (C5H6OH) is the
main observed reaction product. Abstrac… Show more
