The thermal decomposition of benzyl alcohol was investigated in shock waves over the temperature range 1200-1600 K, monitoring benzyl and OH radical concentrations by UV absorption spectroscopy. A limiting high-pressure rate constant of the primary dissociation of kt: = 10 (16"05:0"1) exp (-345 kJ mol 1/RT)s -1 was derived. By investigating the dissociation equilibrium, a limiting high-pressure rate constant for the reverse recombination of k I,= = 5 โข 1013 cm 3 mo1-1 s -1 and an equilibrium constant K c = 1023exp(-345 kJ mo1-1/RT)mol cm -3 were also determined. Falloff curves of the reaction as well as a comparison between thermal and laser excitation results for the dissociation were based on unimolecular rate theory.
