Abstract

The rate coefficients and mechanisms of the reaction of Cl-atoms with a series of unsaturated hydrocarbons under atmospheric conditions were studied. It was observed the product yielded from both trans-2-butene and 1-butene were found to be oxygen dependent. The results showed that the variation of the product yielded with O2 in the case of 1-butene resulted from competitive reaction pathways for the two β-chlorobutoxy radicals involved in the oxidation.
