โฆ Synopsis
The reaction of CH2, particularly the ground electronic state triplet CH2 [l], with 0 2 is known to be very fast. The effectiveness of the reactions involving both singlet (lCH2) and triplet (3CH2) methylene was most dramatically demonstrated by the drastic effects of O2 on CO laser emissions in both O(3P) -CzH2 [2] and CH,CO photodissociation [3] laser systems. Although the observed effects were apparently opposite in these two cases, they were believed to have resulted from the rapid occurrence of the CHZ + 0 2 reaction via presumably the following mechanism [a] : C H ~ + 0, -L . CH,OO. or CH, -HCOOH~

The rate constants for the reaction of CN with NzO and COz have been measured by the laser dissociation/laser-induced fluorescence (two-laser pump-probe) technique at temperatures between 300 and 740 K. The rate of CN + NzO was measurable above 500 K, with a least-squares averaged rate constant, k =
Mixtures of Cl:!, CH4, and 0 2 were flash photolyzed a t room temperature and pressures of -60-760 Torr to produce CH3O2.

The kinetics and mechanism of the gas-phase reaction of CI atoms with CH,CO have been studied with a fTIR spectrometer/smog chamber apparatus. Using relative rate methods the rate of reaction of CI atoms with ketene was found to be independent of total pressure over the range 1-700 torr of air dilue
