Abstract:Kinetics for the reactions of
methyl-2-methyl butanoate (M2MB)
and methyl-3-methyl butanoate (M3MB) with OH radicals were carried
out using the relative rate technique with gas chromatography–flame
ionization detection (RR-GC-FID) in the temperature range of 268–363
K and at 760 Torr of N2. The temperature-dependent rate
coefficients (k in cm3 molecule–1 s–1) for the reaction of M2MB with OH radicals
from 268 to 363 K were measured to be k
268 K
M2MB + OH = (4.62 ± 1.50) × 10–12, k
283 K
M2MB + OH = (4.46 ± 1.… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
