Abstract

The self-reaction of neopentylperoxy radicals, neo-C5H11O2 (NPTO2): NPTO2+ NPTO2→ 2t-C4H9CH2O+ O2 (1a),→ t-C4H9CHO+ t-C4H9CH2OH+ O2 (1b),→ t- C4H9CH2OOCH2C4H9-t+ O2 (1c), has been studied from 248 to 373 K and from 50 to 760 Torr total pressure. The neopentylperoxy radicals fromed via channel (1a) react, under most experimental conditions, by unimolecular decomposition: t-C4H9CH2O+ M→ t-C4H9+ ...
