As the main constituent of natural gas, alkanes are arguably Nature's most plentiful organic
base chemicals that are easily accessible. Chemists have long coveted the use of alkanes …

Reactive plasmas are a well-known tool for material synthesis and surface modification.
They offer a unique combination of non-equilibrium electron and ion driven plasma …

A priori rate predictions for gas phase reactions have undergone a gradual but dramatic
transformation, with current predictions often rivaling the accuracy of the best available …

Elementary reaction mechanisms constitute a fundamental infrastructure for chemical
processes as a whole. However, while these mechanisms are well understood for second …

The rate coefficient for the reaction of the ethynyl radical (C2H) with 1-butyne (H C C
CH2 CH3) is measured in a pulsed Laval nozzle apparatus. Ethynyl radicals are formed by …

Symmetric and nonsymmetric hydrogen abstraction reactions are studied using state-of-the-
art ab initio electronic structure methods. Second-order Møller− Plesset perturbation theory …

Reactions of C2H with isobutane (k 1), 1-butene (k 2), isobutylene (k 3), 1, 3-butadiene (k 4),
methyl cyanide (k 5), ethyl cyanide (k 6), and propyl cyanide (k 7) are studied at low …

Rate coefficients for the reactions of C2H radicals with methane (k1), ethane (k2), propane
(k3), ethylene (k4), and propylene (k5) were computed using canonical variational transition …

The reaction of CH with ethane was studied, at room temperature, in a low-pressure fast-flow
reactor. CH (X2Π, v= 0) radicals were obtained from the reactions of CHBr3 with potassium …

The CH+ CH4 and H2S reactions were studied, at room temperature, in a low-pressure fast-
flow reactor. CH (X 2Π, v= 0) radicals were obtained from the reaction of CHBr3 with …
