Abstract
Rate constants for the gas‐phase reactions of hydroxyl radicals and chlorine atoms with a series of alcohols have been determined by using the relative method. The experiments were performed at 295 ± 2 K and at 1 atmospheric pressure. The obtained values of the rate constants in units of 10^−12^ cm^3^ molecule^−1^ s^−1^ are as follows:
| Alcohol | Rate Constants for OH with | Rate Constants for Cl with |
|---|---|---|
| Propane | Cyclohexane | Propane |
| Ethyl alcohol | 3.40 ± 0.25 | – |
| n‐Propyl alcohol | 5.47 ± 0.44 | – |
| Isopropyl alcohol | 5.31 ± 0.39 | – |
| n‐Butyl alcohol | 8.66 ± 0.66 | – |
| Isobutyl alcohol | 9.08 ± 0.35 | 9.59 ± 0.45 |
| tert‐Butyl alcohol | 1.11 ± 0.07 | – |
| n‐Pentyl alcohol | 12.2 ± 1.0 | 12.4 ± 0.5 |
| Isopentyl alcohol | 13.8 ± 0.5 | 13.2 ± 1.1 |
The above relative rate constants are based on the values (in units of 10^−12^ cm^3^ molecule^−1^ s^−1^) of k(OH + propane) = 1.08, k(OH + cyclohexane) = 7.22, k(Cl + propane) = 131 and k(Cl + cyclohexane) = 307. The results are compared with previous determinations. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Chem Kinet 35: 81–87, 2003
