Thermochemical Properties Of Small Oxygenated Sulfur Hydrocarbons And Kinetics - Reaction Pathways Of Methylthiomethyl Radical With Oxygen, Fei Jin

Theses

The thermochemical properties on CH₃SCH₂OOH and the corresponding two radicals resulting from loss of H atom: CH₃SCH₂OO and CH₂SCH₂OOH are important to understand the stability, reaction paths and kinetics of reactions of dimethyl sulfide and other sulfur hydrocarbons (sulfides) in the atmosphere and combustion processes. Thermochemical properties for species and transition states in the methylthiomethyl radical (CH₃SCH₂) + O₂ reaction system are analyzed to evaluate reaction paths and kinetics under these conditions. Isodesmic working reaction are employed to determine the enthalpies of formation …
