Abstract
The reaction kinetics of the isomers of the methylallyl radical with molecular oxygen has been studied in a flow tube reactor at the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) beamline of the Swiss Light Source storage ring. The radicals were generated by direct photodissociation of bromides or iodides at 213 nm. Experiments were conducted at room temperature and low pressures between 1 and 3 mbar using He as the buffer gas. Oxygen was employed in excess to maintain near pseudo-first-order reaction conditions. Concentration-time profiles of the radical were monitored by photoionisation. For the oxidation of 2-methylallyl (2-MA) and with k(2-MA + O2) = (5.1 ± 1.0) × 1011 cm3 mol-1 s-1, the rate constant was found to be in the high-pressure limit already at 1 mbar. In contrast, 1-methylallyl exists in two isomers, E- and Z-1-methylallyl. We selectively detected the E-conformer as well as a mixture of both isomers and observed almost identical rate constants within the uncertainty of the experiment. A small pressure dependence is observed with the rate constant increasing from k(1-MA + O2) = (3.5 ± 0.7) × 1011 cm3 mol-1 s-1 at 1 mbar to k(1-MA + O2) = (4.6 ± 0.9) × 1011 cm3 mol-1 s-1 at 3 mbar. While for 2-methylallyl + O2 no previous experimental data are available, the rate constants for 1-methylallyl are in agreement with previous work. A comparison is drawn for the trends of the high-pressure limiting rate constants and pressure dependences observed for the O2 recombination of allylic radicals with the corresponding reactions of alkyl radicals.

Abstract
Photochemically driven reactions involving unsaturated radicals produce a thick global layer of organic haze on Titan, Saturn's largest moon. The allyl radical self-reaction is an example for this type of chemistry and was examined at room temperature from an experimental and kinetic modelling perspective. The experiments were performed in a static reactor with a volume of 5 L under wall free conditions. The allyl radicals were produced from laser flash photolysis of three different precursors allyl bromide (C3H5Br), allyl chloride (C3H5Cl), and 1,5-hexadiene (CH2CH(CH2)2CHCH2) at 193 nm. Stable products were identified by their characteristic vibrational modes and quantified using FTIR spectroscopy. In addition to the (re-) combination pathway C3H5+C3H5 → C6H10 we found at low pressures around 1 mbar the highest final product yields for allene and propene for the precursor C3H5Br. A kinetic analysis indicates that the end product formation is influenced by specific reaction kinetics of photochemically activated allyl radicals. Above 10 mbar the (re-) combination pathway becomes dominant. These findings exemplify the specificities of reaction kinetics involving chemically activated species, which for certain conditions cannot be simply deduced from combustion kinetics or atmospheric chemistry on Earth.
