β¦ Synopsis
Absolute rate constants have been measured for the reactions of trichloromethylperoxyl radicals with cyclohexane, cyclohexene, and hexamethylbenzene. The CClsO, radicals were produced by pulse radiolysis of air-saturated CCl, solutions containing various amounts of the hydrocarbons. The rate constants were determined by competition with the one-electron oxidation of metalloporphyrins, using the rate of formation of the rnetalloporphyrin radical cation absorption to monitor the reaction by kinetic spectrophotometry. The rate constants for hydrogen abstraction from cyclohexane, cyclohexene, and hexamethylbenzene were found to be 1 x lo3, 1.0 x lo5, and 7.5 x lo4 M-' s-', respectively.

An important step in the initial oxidation of hydrocarbons at low to intermediate temperatures is the abstraction of H by hydroperoxyl radical (HO(2)). In this study, we calculate energy profiles for the sequence: reactant + HO(2) β [complex of reactants] β transition state β [complex of products] β
## Abstract Measurements of rates of oxygen absorption and steadyβstate peroxy radical concentrations for the autoxidation of tetralin in the presence of __tert__βbutyl hydroperoxide have shown that the rate constant for reaction of the __tert__βbutylperoxy radical with tetralin at 60Β°C is approxim
Rate constants have been determined for the reactions of SO4with a series of alkanes and ethers. The SO, radical was produced by the laser-flash photolysis of persulfate, SZO: -. For methane, only an upper limit of 1 x lo6 M-' s-\* could be determined. For ethane, propane, and 2-methylpropane, rate
The rate constant for abstraction of hydrogen from isobutane by methyl radicals has been re-examined making use of new measurements at temperatures above 660 K. Most of the data over the temperature range 300-855 K can be accommodated by the following values for the rate constants for abstraction fr
## Abstract We propose a semiempirical procedure for the estimation of the rate constants for hydrogen atom abstraction reactions of OH radicals with haloalkanes and haloethers. Our procedure is derived from the collision theory based kinetic equation, which was originally proposed by Heicklen (__I
