    The Reactions of Ozone with Methyl and Ethyl Nitrites D. R. HASTIE, C. G. FREEMAN, M. J. McEWAN, and H. 1. SCHIFF* Department of Chemistry, University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand Abstract The reactions of 0 3 with CH30NO and C2H 50NO were studied using infrared absorp­ tion spectroscopy in a static reactor at temperatures between 298 and 352K. Both reactions followed simple second-order kinetics forming the corresponding nitrate: (I) CHaONO + Oa ~ CH30N02 + O 2 (2) C2H 50NO + 0 3 ~ C2H 50N02 + O 2 The rate coefficients are given by 3 loglo k1(cm jmolec.sec) = (- 12.1 7 ± 0.23) - e3;.~0~ ~72) 3 loglo k2(cm jmolec·sec) = (- 15.50 ± 0.16) - C3:~0~ ~16) Introduction The methoxy radical CHsO is produced in the atmosphere as an intermediate in the photochemical qxidation of hydrocarbons and from the photolysis and oxidation of methane (1-3]. In the presence of nitrogen oxides NO", CHaO may be converted into the corresponding nitrite and nitrate, CHsONO and CHaON02 [3-5]. In spite of the potential atmospheric importance of methyl nitrite, few quantitative studies of its chemistry have been published although the photolysis [3], pyrolysis [6], and bond dissociation (7] processes have been investigated. We report here measurements of the rate coefficients k1 and k 2 for the reactions of methyl and ethyl nitrites with ozone at several temperatures in the range of 298-352K.

  • The Thermal Decomposition of Nitrate Esters. I. Ethyl Nitratel
    3254 JOSEPH B. LEVY Vol. 7G [COSTRIBUTIOS FROM THEEXPLOSIVES RESEARCH DEPARTMENT, u. s. YAVAL ORDNANCE LABORATORY] The Thermal Decomposition of Nitrate Esters. I. Ethyl Nitratel BY JOSEPH B. LEVY RECEIVEDAGGUST 11, 1953 The thermal decomposition of gaseous ethyl nitrate has been studied at 161-201" at pressures of a few cm. An analytical technique has been developed using the absorption spectra in the infrared and visible regions which has made it possible to follow the disappearance of ethyl nitrate directly. It has been found that ethyl nitrite is a major product of the reaction and that methyl nitrite and nitromethane are formed in minor amounts. The formation of nitrogen dioxide and nitric oxide as reported by others has also been observed using the optical techniques. The variations with time of ethyl nitrate, ethyl nitrite aud nitrogen dioxide have been followed quantitatively. Some semi-quantitative data have also been found for nitric oxide and nitromethane. The mechanism for nitrate ester decomposition is examined in the light of the results found and qome revisions suggested Introduction nitrate was obtained optically by transferring the contents of one bulb to an infrared cell without any heating period.

  • Adiabatic Calorimetric Studies of Hydroxylamine
    ADIABATIC CALORIMETRIC STUDIES OF HYDROXYLAMINE COMPOUNDS A Dissertation by LIZBETH OLIVIA CISNEROS TREVIÑO Submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2002 Major Subject: Chemical Engineering iii ABSTRACT Adiabatic Calorimetric Studies of Hydroxylamine Compounds. (August 2002) Lizbeth Olivia Cisneros Treviño, B.S., ITESM, Monterrey, Mexico Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. M. Sam Mannan In the present work, the thermal decomposition reaction of HA and some of its derivatives (aqueous solutions of hydroxylamine, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, hydroxylamine sulfate, and hydroxylamine o-sulfonic acid) were studied using adiabatic calorimetry. The effect of some metal contaminants such as Ti, stainless steel, carbon steel, ferric ion, and ferrous ion was also analyzed. Useful information was generated such as safe storage temperatures (onset temperature), maximum temperature, maximum pressure, pressure of noncondensables, heat and pressure generation rates as functions of temperature, temperature vs. pressure and time to maximum rate. To get an insight about the possible decomposition mechanisms, HA decomposition reactions were carried out with and without air above the sample. The thermokinetics of the respective systems was modeled using the heat generation rates. From such kinetic models, reaction order, activation energies, and frequency factors for the overall decomposition reactions were obtained. The kinetic parameters were used in computer simulations to obtain models for the temperature vs. time curves. Since several members of the hydroxylamine family were studied, a comparison of their thermal behavior is presented. iv To my husband Javier, my brothers Rodolfo, Francisco Javier and José Juan, and my parents Rodolfo and Olivia… v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I thank Dr.
