## Abstract Cyclopentane has been decomposed in comparative‐rate single‐pulse shock‐tube experiments. The pyrolytic mechanism involves isomerization to 1‐pentene and also a minor pathway leading to cyclopropane and ethylene. This is followed by the decomposition of 1‐pentene and cyclopropane. The r
