โฆ Synopsis
Reaction rate coefficients of methyl and ethyl nitrates with OH radicals were determined by the relative rate method in 1 atmosphere of oxygen. Reactions were initiated by the photochemical formation of OH radicals utilizing the reaction:

For methyl nitrate, this data indicates the preference of a smaller rate coefficient between the two values reported in the literature [1,2], which have shown large discrepancies of more than one order of magnitude. For ethyl nitrate, only one measurement has been reported [2]. However, the present result suggests that the reported value was overestimated by a factor of more than two.

While AOP treats amides as amines, we expect amides to be less reactive than amines from the analogous relationship between esters and ethers (see [3] for OH rate constants): if amines are matched to ethers (both are highly reac
