【 摘 要 】

A shock tube coupled to a time-of-flight mass spectrometer has been employed to analyze the dynamic behavior of reactants, products, and intermediates in those reaction systems which are most pertinent to understanding the chemistry attendant to the soot formation process. The measurement of the decay rates of the reactants, the rate of formation of intermediates and products have been used to determine rate constants over a wide temperature range. Recent examples include the pyrolyses of allene, propyne, pyrazine, pyrimidine, pyridine, acetylene, furan, cyclopentadiene, and methylcyclopentadiene.
