Abstract

The inhibiting influence of four alkenes (propene, isobutene, 2-methyl-1-butene and 2-methyl-2-butene) on the thermal decomposition of 2,2-dimethylbutane has been studied in a pyrex static reaction vessel at ca. 450 °C. These four alkenes have a similar strong kinetic effect and their comparison leads us to think that a mechanism by hydrogen abstraction allows to interpret such effects.

Abstract

Кинетический (ингивирующий) эффект добавления алкенов на пиролиз 2,2-диметилбутана был описан в предыдущей статье. Здесь был исследован химический эффект двух алкенов (2-метил-2-бутена и изобутена) на этот пиролиз, или более точно образование новых первичных продуктов и изменения в распределении продуктов. Наблюдаемый эффект интерпретируется присоединением свободного атома водорода Н·к двойной связи молекулы алкена с дальнейшими реакциями свободных радикалов, образующихся за счет этой ступени присоединения.
