✦ Synopsis


The kinetics of the quenching of 0( 'S) atoms by a number of simple alkanes, C2H2 and CzH4, was studied in the temperature range from 215 to 435 K. The metastable atoms were produced in the pulsed 121.6 nm photolysis of N20 and detected by the forbidden transition O('S-+'D) enhanced by exciplex formation in the presence of Ar. The measured rate constants increase markedly with the complexily of the alkanes by more than five orders of magnitude from CH, to n-CSH,, and are large for the simplest unsaturated hydrocarbons &HZ and C2H+ The temperature dependences of the constants generally are small and exhibit all types of behavior such as Arrhenius, non-Arrhenius, negative temperature coeflicient, and independence of temperature.

The successive C-H bond dissociation energies of CH,, &Hz. C2H4, and H&O (ketene) are determined using large basis sets and a high level of correlation treatment. For CHI, C2H2, and C2H4 the computed values are in excellent agreement with experiment. Using our results we recommend 107.9 +2.0 and 96.
