By using a relative rate technique, the rate constant for the gas phase reaction of OH radicals with diacetylene, a reaction considered to be of importance in fuel-rich acetylene oxidation, has been determined at 297 :t: 2K and atmospheric pressure. On the basis of a rate constant for the reaction o

β¦ Synopsis
Rates of CN reactions with diacetylene (DA) and dicyanoacetylene (DCA) have been measured at room temperature from the decay of the CN radical at various sample pressures by laser induced fluorescence. The rate constants are (4.2 + 0.2) Γ I0 l0 and (5.4_ 0.2)Γ 10-13 in units of cm 3 molec-t s-l for DA and DCA, respectively, which follow the general pattern of CN reactions with hydrocarbons and nitriles. In the lower temperature circumstellar envelopes and Titan's atmosphere, the CN reaction with Call 2 may be more important, while the reaction with C4N 2 may become less important.

Rate constants for the reaction of CN( u= 0) with Cl,, FZ and O2 have been measured. CN radicals were generated by photolysis of C2Nz with pulsed radiation at 193 nm. Laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) was used to monitor the decay profiles of CN radical concentrations. The valuesobtainedare: k(CN/CI?
Absolute rate constants have been measured for the reaction of the OH radical with diacetylene over the temperature range of 296-688K using a flash photolysis-resonance fluorescence technique. The best fit to the data is given by the following Arrhenius expression: k= 1.11 x 10 -II exp{410+3OO(cal/m
