Kinetics and mechanisms of elementary chemical processes of importance in combustion. Periodic report 4 for the period October 1987 - April 1988
Description
The rate and mechanism of the reaction of OH with CO have been investigated by pulse radiolysis combined with transient UV-spectrophotometry. At T = 298 K and p = 1 atm. it appears that the low pressure channel (1a) HO + CO -> H + CO2 is much more important than the reaction (1b) HO + CO + M -> HO-C=O + M. At p = 100 - 120 atm wee have observed transient absorption signals in the range of 205 - 240 nm which we tentatively assigned to the collision stabilized HO-C=O adduct. 17 refs. (EG)
