Abstract

Reaction pathways and kinetics are analyzed on the CH3OC·H2+O2 reaction system using thermodynamic properties derived by two composite ab initio calculation methods, CBS-q and G2. Thermodynamic properties are determined for reactants, intermediate radicals, and transition-state (TS) species and kinetic parameters are determined. Enthalpies of formation of reactant CH3OC·H2 and two intermediate radicals CH3OCH2OO· and C·H2OCH2OOH are determined using isodesmic reactions, where zero-point vibrational energies and thermal corrections to 298.15 K are taken into account. Quantum Rice-Ramsperger-Kassel (QRRK) analysis is used to calculate energy-dependent rate constants, and master equation is used for the collisional stabilization of adduct and isomer.
