Abstract
The cyclization reactions of hydroperoxymethylester radicals are pivotal in low-temperature methyl-ester combustion but limited experimental and theoretical kinetic data pose challenges. Prior research has drawn upon analogous hydroperoxy alkyl radical cyclization reactions to approximate rate constants and might inaccurately represent ester group-specific behavior. This study systematically investigates these kinetics, accounting for ester group effects and computational complexities in large molecular systems. The reactions are categorized into 11 classes based on cyclic transition state size and -OOH/radical positions. Energy barriers and high-pressure-limit rate constants are calculated using the isodesmic reaction correction method, validated, and applied to 24 subclasses based on carbon sites connected to -OOH and radical moieties. Subclass high-pressure-limit rate rules are derived through averaging rate constants. Analysis reveals uncertainties within acceptable chemical accuracy limits, validating the reaction classification and rate rules. We conduct comparative analyses with values from analogous alkyl reactions in established mechanisms while comparing our results with the high-pressure-limit rate rules for analogous alkane reactions. These comparisons reveal notable disparities, emphasizing the ester group's influence and necessitating tailored ester-specific rate rules. These findings hold promise for improving automatic reaction mechanism generation, particularly for large methyl esters.

Abstract
Density functional theory calculations (ωB97X-D) are reported for the reactions of methoxy, tert-butoxy, trichloroethoxy, and trifluoroethoxy radicals with a series of 26 C-H bonds in different environments characteristic of a variety of hydrocarbons and substituted derivatives. The variations in activation barriers are analyzed with modified Evans-Polanyi treatments to account for polarity and unsaturation effects. The treatments by Roberts and Steel and by Mayer have inspired the development of a simple treatment involving the thermodynamics of reactions, the difference between the reactant radical and product radical electronegativities, and the absence or presence of α-unsaturation. The three-parameter equation (ΔH⧧ = 0.52ΔHrxn(1 - d) - 0.35ΔχAB2 + 10.0, where d = 0.44 when there is α-unsaturation to the reacting C-H bond), correlates well with quantum mechanically computed barriers and shows the quantitative importance of the thermodynamics of reactions (dictated by the reactant and the product bond dissociation energies) and polar effects.

Abstract
This review describes major features of current research in renewable fuels derived from plants and from fatty acids. Recent and ongoing fundamental studies of biofuel molecular structure, oxidation reactions, and biofuel chemical properties are reviewed, in addition to combustion applications of biofuels in the major types of engines in which biofuels are used. Biofuels and their combustion are compared with combustion features of conventional petroleum-based fuels. Two main classes of biofuels are described, those consisting of small, primarily alcohol, fuels (particularly ethanol, n-butanol, and iso-pentanol) that are used primarily to replace or supplement gasoline and those derived from fatty acids and used primarily to replace or supplement conventional diesel fuels. Research efforts on so-called second- and third-generation biofuels are discussed briefly.

Abstract
Due to growing environmental concerns and diminishing petroleum reserves, a wide range of oxygenated species has been proposed as possible substitutes to fossil fuels: alcohols, methyl esters, acyclic and cyclic ethers. After a short review the major detailed kinetic models already proposed in the literature for the combustion of these molecules, the specific classes of reactions considered for modeling the oxidation of acyclic and cyclic oxygenated molecules respectively, are detailed.

Abstract
In the context of limiting the environmental impact of transportation, this critical review discusses new directions which are being followed in the development of more predictive and more accurate detailed chemical kinetic models for the combustion of fuels. In the first part, the performance of current models, especially in terms of the prediction of pollutant formation, is evaluated. In the next parts, recent methods and ways to improve these models are described. An emphasis is given on the development of detailed models based on elementary reactions, on the production of the related thermochemical and kinetic parameters, and on the experimental techniques available to produce the data necessary to evaluate model predictions under well defined conditions (212 references).
