Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The mechanism of the reaction of the HO2 radical with molecules of saturated and unsatured hydrocarbons and methanol was studied.

  2. 2.

    The HO2 radical reacts with molecules of saturated hydrocarbons with cleavage of the C-C bond and the formation of a carbonyl compound and hydroxyl. All the way up to a temperature of 200°, the reaction of stripping of a H atom is negligible.

  3. 3.

    With molecules of unsaturated hydrocarbons at temperatures up to 200°, the characteristic reaction is addition to the double bond, followed by the formation of a carbonyl compound and an alcohol radical.

  4. 4.

    The main reaction of HO2 with methanol is the formation of H2O2 and a CH2OH radical.
