The pyrolysis of 2-methylbut-l-ene-3-yne (C5H,) has been studied from 375 to 450°C in a quartz reaction vessel in the absence and presence of O2 or NO. From 375 to 425"C, the rates of disappearance of reactant and of formation of dimers are second order in C5H6. The major product is polymer, with th

✦ Synopsis
2-Methylbut-1-ene-3-yne and Propyne mixtures were pyrolyzed at 350-450°C in the absence and presence of O2 and NO. The major product of the reaction is a polymer, but rn-xylene andp-xylene are also produced and were studied as the species of interest. The CsHIo formation rate is first-order in C3H4 and C5H,. The rate coefficient is best fitted by lOg[k(CBHIo),M~'s~'] = (11.2 2 1.0) -(166 ? 13)/2.3RT though it is not inconsistent with log[k(CgH,,), W ' S -' ] = (8.17) -(125.9)/2.3RT
where R is the ideal gas constant in kJ/mol-K. Experiments in the presence of NO show that m-xylene and p-xylene formation occur by two processes: a concerted molecular mechanism (= 41%) and a singlet diradical mechanism (= 59%).
