The gas-phase reactions of Cl atoms with allyl alcohol (k(1)), 3-buten-2-ol (k(2)), and 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (k(3)) at 296 +/- 2 K have been investigated using absolute and relative rate methods in 1-700 Torr of N(2) diluent. Absolute rate studies were performed using pulsed laser photolysis/vacuum ultraviolet laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy techniques. Relative rate studies were performed using smog chamber/Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy techniques. The absolute and relative rate studies gave consistent results. The kinetics of the reactions are dependent on pressure over the range studied. Molar yields for HCl production in 700 Torr of N(2) for reactions of chlorine atoms with allyl alcohol, 3-buten-2-ol, and 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol were measured to be 0.26 +/- 0.03, 0.23 +/- 0.03, and 0.12 +/- 0.02, respectively. The chlorine-atom-initiated oxidation of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol in 700 Torr of air gave the following products (molar yields): acetone (47 +/- 4%), chloroacetaldehyde (47 +/- 5%), and HCHO (7.2 +/- 0.6%). The observation of substantial and indistinguishable yields of acetone and chloroacetaldehyde products indicates that a major fraction of the reaction proceeds via addition of chlorine atoms to the terminal carbon atom. The results are discussed with respect to the literature data.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D007834 Lasers An optical source that emits photons in a coherent beam. Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (LASER) is brought about using devices that transform light of varying frequencies into a single intense, nearly nondivergent beam of monochromatic radiation. Lasers operate in the infrared, visible, ultraviolet, or X-ray regions of the spectrum.

D010084 Oxidation-Reduction A chemical reaction in which an electron is transferred from one molecule to another. The electron-donating molecule is the reducing agent or reductant; the electron-accepting molecule is the oxidizing agent or oxidant. Reducing and oxidizing agents function as conjugate reductant-oxidant pairs or redox pairs (Lehninger, Principles of Biochemistry, 1982, p471). Redox,Oxidation Reduction
D010782 Photolysis Chemical bond cleavage reactions resulting from absorption of radiant energy. Photodegradation
D002244 Carbon A nonmetallic element with atomic symbol C, atomic number 6, and atomic weight [12.0096; 12.0116]. It may occur as several different allotropes including DIAMOND; CHARCOAL; and GRAPHITE; and as SOOT from incompletely burned fuel. Carbon-12,Vitreous Carbon,Carbon 12,Carbon, Vitreous

D005557 Formaldehyde A highly reactive aldehyde gas formed by oxidation or incomplete combustion of hydrocarbons. In solution, it has a wide range of uses: in the manufacture of resins and textiles, as a disinfectant, and as a laboratory fixative or preservative. Formaldehyde solution (formalin) is considered a hazardous compound, and its vapor toxic. (From Reynolds, Martindale The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p717) Formalin,Formol,Methanal,Oxomethane
D000079 Acetaldehyde A colorless, flammable liquid used in the manufacture of acetic acid, perfumes, and flavors. It is also an intermediate in the metabolism of alcohol. It has a general narcotic action and also causes irritation of mucous membranes. Large doses may cause death from respiratory paralysis. Ethanal
