Abstract
The rate coefficient for the unimolecular reaction, C~2~H~6~ β CH~3~ + CH~3~, was measured in reflected shock wave experiments using narrowβlinewidth laser absorption of methyl radicals at 216.6 nm. The experiments were conducted in the falloff regime at the conditions 1350 to 2110 K, 0.58 to 4.4 atm, in 50 to 500 ppm C~2~H~6~/Ar and 190 ppm C~2~H~6~/N~2~ mixtures. At temperatures below 1500 K, the measured rate coefficients are in good agreement with the expression of Wagner and Wardlaw (1989). Above 1500 K, the measurements fall increasingly below their predictions. Β© 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Mixtures of cyclopentadiene diluted with argon were used to investigate its decomposition pattern in a single pulse shock tube. The temperatures ranged from 1080 to 1550 K and pressures behind the shock were between 1.7 -9.6 atm. The cyclopentadiene concentrations ranged from 0.5 to 2%. Gas-chromato
