## Abstract The decomposition mechanism of 2βethylβhexylnitrate (2βEHN), an important additive to diesel fuel to improve the cetane number, was investigated in solution and in the gas phase. In __trans__βdecalin as solvent, an activation barrier for the thermal decomposition of 39 kcal/mol was dete

## Abstract The gasβphase thermal decomposition rate of peroxyβ__n__βbutyryl nitrate (__n__βC~3~H~7~C(O)OONO~2~, PnBN) has been measured at ambient temperature (296 K) and 1 atm of air relative to that of peroxyacetyl nitrate (CH~3~C(O)OONO~2~, PAN) using mixtures of PAN (14β19 ppb), PnBN (22β46 pp
## Abstract The thermal decomposition of trifluoromethoxycarbonyl peroxy nitrate, CF~3~OC(O)O~2~NO~2~, has been studied between 278 and 306 K at 270 mbar total pressure using He as a diluent gas. The pressure dependence of the reaction was also studied at 292 K between 1.2 and 270 mbar total pressu
